so many computer questions

Bee Spring, KY(Zone 6a)

My computer is like 10 years old, lately it's been so slow can't use it. Took it to the guy that built it for me, for clean up. He said I needed a faster processor, but would cost as much for him to buy and put in as a new computer. He took everything off the computer but the basic I needed. It's still way to slow. Takes like 9 minutes to pull up pages. I purchased a external harddrive and put all pictures and etc. on it, but didn't help. Will the new harddrive slow it down also? Now I'm looking to buy a laptop but know nothing about them.....Could it be my internet provider? Hate to buy a new computer and still have the same problem!! I have windows xp professional, it has been great, but horrible now. If I buy a laptop, what are the better ones??
please help S_P.
