[Blindtlk] computer buying advise

Tue Dec 11 18:38:09 UTC 2012

Hi All, Thanks for the advice on computer buying. Yes, xp is good.  I read a 
book from NLS on windows 7 and it doesn't  seem  that tricky.
I sure hope we can find windows 7.

Oh, does it matter if it is home or premium??

Best,
Georgia
