a. which would you choose to yield the best performance improvement for the least amount of money?
b. which option would you choose if you don't care about the money, but want a faster system?
c. what is the break-even point for the upgrades? that is, what price would we need to charge for the cpu (or the disk – change only one) so the result was the same cost per 1% increase for both?
