Hi Sharlene,
My netbook is an ACER. I like it, but the keyboard is not complete. I
still can't figure out how to get to the top or bottom of a page! It is
pretty fast and I have been successful in marking keys of importance,
which helps a lot!
What a terrible situation your brother is in. Our medical certainly needs
an overhauling!

Hi Ellen,
Thanks. I don't mind going to a store, but my Toshiba, for example, has more programs by that company that they want you to use, thus making the computer more difficult. The keyboard is great though. Bob's computer, on the other hand is an Asus. It is not as difficult to use, but has a smaller keyboard.
What netbook do you havbe. I tbhink we will go to B and H or J and R as we have not had good luck with Best Buy.
My brother finally got out of the hospital yesterdayh, though they gave him a script for insulin and forgot to give him one for the syringes. He got home, found itout, and isn't able to travel yet. Hkospitals!

- Hi Sharlene,
- I purchased my net book from Buy.com. I get daily lists from them and usually they include several net books. I would be happy to send the one that comes tomorrow if it contains interesting options.
- Also, I bought a Gateway lap top from Best Buy--It was impossible to order the laptop directly from Bestbuy--but it certainly has a full key board
- My reader should be here later today, I will try and remember to ask her to check the model munber. I think it would be worth it to go to one of the many Bestbuy stores to check things out!
- As for Windows 7...I would be thrilled to learn the intricacies of windows 7 myself!

- Hi everyone!
- My netbook is dying! weep!
- Has anyone purchased a new laptop or netbook lately? I am interested in a full keyboard, loud sound, and alt and control keys on both sides. Also, does anyone know if there is a good tutorial (not just a manual) on windows 7? I guess I will need to learn a new Email since outlook express won't work. Finally, are we meeting at the end of June or in July?
- If you are kind enough to answer these questions, keep in mind that I am neither a great computer user nor a great student. Simple is my friend.
- Any comments or advice will be greatly appreciated.
- Thanks much.
- Sharlene
