Being a computer enthusiast, although not an overly zealous one like some I've come to know, it's natural to spend time picking out the best for the money and tweaking what you already have. But hardware can only go so far. What do you do after you've explored the depths of your BIOS, after trying out every combination of memory timings? The OS. As we all know, Windows XP is a resource hog and the more you have installed, the worse it gets. I recently went from 512mb to 256mb due to a corrupt module and the difference became very apparent. So today we're taking a look at Leading Interactive's SpeedUpMyPC, an all-inclusive program that, in a nutshell, speeds up your computer.
When installing SpeedUpMyPC you're first prompted to enter a CD-key; otherwise your trial will expire in 30 days, which leads me to believe that at some point there may have been a free downloadable version. Or at least that's how every trial-based program I've used has worked. At any rate, I see no real reason why you'd want the hard copy. You'll end up paying an extra $20 for a pretty case and a CD, when all it takes is a couple minutes worth of bandwidth to get it online. The only plausible reason I see for getting the hard copy is whether you'd be able to download the it again if something were to become corrupt with the one you currently own. But I assume this has already been thought of.
