I am thinking of buying a refurbished PC for $199 and then a monitor. It has Win 98 on it and it's all I need for a 3rd PC. Want to use it for doing actions while I write about what I'm doing on other computer. Used to do this when I wrote curriculum in the mid-80s for two computer schools. Now my ethical question is -- since I will be using it as a back up also for what's on my main PC -- can I just use a cable to transfer files and consider it the same as if I made a back up CD from software I bought? It will not be connected to the Internet.
