To be fair, I am rarely using Office 2007 in Concert with FB or IE8.
Remembering the last time I used a system with similar specs, I can only conclude that you are much more patient than I.

I'd be curious which processor the original poster has in the recently-dead Inspiron 1720. If it's a Celeron/Core Solo (not sure if those were offered) he's less likely to be displeased from a step backwards.
