Request for computational advice

My home PC is around seven years old and starting to show its age, as is "my" (actually it is property of UM) four year-old laptop. My question is: is there some magic software that will unclog their computational drains for a while and allow me to put off replacing them, or should I bite the bullet and do my own personal stimulus package? If the latter, I would be interested in recommendations, though I am likely to stick with Dell in both cases.

All emails welcome: I will summarize the good bits.
