[OM] OT: New/Used Laptop

     Spent a nice day cycling around with a friend, first going out for 
breakfast and then cruising around for yard sales.  Came away from one with a 
very lightly used Compaq V2000 Presario laptop with the charger and a wireless 
HP mouse for just $15.  The mouse is worth more than that.  At another yard 
sale I found a padded carrying case for just $2, so I came home with a 
virtually new laptop for less than $20.

     Got home and set up a new user account, then deleted all of the old ones.  
This morning I spent an hour installing the internet basics such as antivirus, 
malware, Firefox, proxy host, and then adjusting the settings to suit me, which 
mostly entails shutting off ALL of the automatic updates.  Doesn't look like 
this was used much.  When I opened WORD it went to the initial setup procedure.
