Very good idea! Like a mini puter you can put in your pocket.
Mr. Vagrant,
I have a semi-used smart phone I'll let you have if you want it. It worked fine for me until I upgraded. I tried to give it to Wally, but he's not thmart enough to use one. He's still trying to learn that rotary dial thingy.
PM me your addy.
Best regards,
Bonz

Re: It could be worse!
We are all waiting Al,get back as soon as you can.
I recently had a mouse problem and bought a $2.00 number off SleazeBay and it works just fine.
Yes I still use a wired mouse and a big metal box computer. Had bad luck with wireless mouses.
Come back as soon as you can brother,the place ain't the same without you.
David did you say you had a Lenovo computer? Mine has been superb and the reviews I read say it's far better quality than any Dell,Gateway or many other big names. They say Lenovo is a Chinese company but actually makes outstanding units.
Mine has never failed once and not sure but I think it's just the Home Premium version. Very satisfied so far.Less than 30 seconds of booting from a dead stop I am online. Very cool.
Having said that it'll sh*t out on me next week

Re: It could be worse!
I have a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro. It uses the i5 processor which is very energy efficient. Lenovo built the later generations of IBM PC's, so they know what they are doing. Truth be told, most PC's and laptops are pretty much commodities these days. Little to differentiate one from another. I went with Lenovo as I have been impressed by how reliable they are working with them in the corporate world.
Re: It could be worse!
Yea good to know my friend. I am still old fashioned with the PC,key pad and wired mouse.
I bought my Lenovo simply because there was not much to choose from and later found from research they are very reliable.
