I definitely support your approach; I hate to see usable tech being tossed for something easily remedied.
My old laptop is from 2007, as well, but being a Mac can't run the newer versions of OSX because Mac purposely builds their hardware to be crap and they want to lock their customers into a max. four-year refresh cycle. Which is why I've had two Mac laptops for a year now. *sigh*
