First, we need to calculate how much money Anna saved in total.

She saved $20 per month for 2 1/2 years, which is 30 months (2.5 years x 12 months per year).

Total savings = $20/month x 30 months = $600

Next, we need to calculate how much money Anna spent on the computer.

75% of $600 = $450

Finally, we can calculate how much money Anna had left in the jar:

Total savings - Money spent on computer = $600 - $450 = $150

Therefore, Anna had $150 left in the jar.
