[nabs-l] A Song I want

Tue Dec 11 23:45:42 UTC 2012

Hi,
Another option is to get a netbook, desktop, or laptop computer on sale. I 
got my netbook for under $200 one time after Christmas when a lot of things 
went on sale.
Hth,
Misty

>> learn pc skills.  If they do not, shame on them.
>> You can learn pc skills at a summer camp then.

>> I've heard many websites don't work well on a braille note.
>> That is since they have flash and frames.  I cannot think of many free 
>> sites;
>> youtube is one.
>> You could also buy it from FYE probably.
