[Electronics-Talk] Obtaining a New Computer, here's a source for new desk tops and lap tops

[Gerald Levy]

Does anyone know whether Computers for the Blind is functioning right 
now?  They may be closed due to the national health crisis. And forget 
about visiting a Best Buy or office supplies store like Staples or 
Office Depot to check out computers in person because they are closed in 
most parts of the country.
