Just hooked up my new computer. 5.6 processor, 4 gigs RAM, 750 hard drive. It is fast! If I was computer literate I would be all set. So much more than I need but maybe I'll get better. Right. Better chance of Obama being a great President than me becoming good with a computer. Oh well, at least I'm honest about my computer skills, or more correctly, lack thereof.

    Finally got a new computer,its a cisnet,was gona buy a dell but couldnt get much sense out of the sales guy I spoke to on the phone,couldnt even get shipping cost out of him.With this computer comes 3 months of msn for three months free,at the moment I have aol and that is definitely going.Any one got any of these cheap dial up internet systems like juno,peoples or netzero.Is it worth paying the extra for the high speed versions or is that a con.We cannot get dsl in my area yet unfortunately.

    Spent all afternoon yesterday sitting up and getting familiar with a new computer. Old one was 5 years old and on its last legs. Now I'm going nuts trying to learn this new Vista program. Sure wish I could have gotten a good system with XP for an operating system.

    I'm not sure I have email set up correctly. Would someone please email me for a test? Forgot to take email addresses out of the old computer,so I've got to set it up and copy them out tonight.

    well, I'm tired of the crappy performance of my laptop with Vista
    is this laptop/price any good? I don't do video games. just need something to surf, email and run Office 2007. will this thing work with a bluetooth mouse out of the box?
    thanks
