It is not always important to have the newest and greatest technology, let's face it technology moves at a fast pace and it can be hard to keep up with it. The thing that is important when it comes to older equipment is that you should never let it become so outdated that it is no longer supported.
When it comes to older systems, speed is not the main problem. The security of the system is where the real dangers are.
Older systems may not be able to run with the latest operating system or security products. If you are running with an outdated system and older anti-virus software then you may not be protected making it vulnerable to Spyware, Malware and Hackers.
If you don't replace your system, then you are also probably running older applications and this can leave you vulnerable to cybercrime and you will not get support from the vendors should things go wrong.
Replacing equipment costs money, but when you consider that you are investing to stop your data being stolen then it is a good investment.
