By way of update, shiny new Dell laptop appeared last Tuesday, the advantage of Dell is that it all worked out of the box and (for a non tekkie) was easy to set up. MS Office 2007 arrived midweek and is now on there, I've had a bit of a play with Word but haven't had to do anything substantial. I think the new menu system seems to make sense but ask me again once I've tried to work on it!
NOW I'm on the scrounge....I've donated my old HP laptop to my nephew who just wants something to chat to his friends without leaving the sofa (bit like his aunt really!).....but I'm in big trouble as my friend's twin boys REALLY want a laptop to use and apparently had plans for my old one but got beaten to it!!
Does anyone have an old laptop that they'd be prepared to flog off for a few quid? The kids just need something with basic graphics and a wireless card that will do basic surfing and stuff (mainly You Tube and porn I imagine - they are 13 year old boys!).
Cheers!
