Tom bought a $50 laptop at a garage sale a couple of years ago. The guy had wanted $100. Tom had to come home and get the checkbook. By the time he got back, the guy had dropped the price. He probably thought that the "problem' was worse than it was, but Tom said a couple of wires needed tightened or something.
It looks several years old so the software is outdated. I don't want to put too much $$ in it upgrading. I do love the idea of a laptop. Depending on how finances go, maybe I can get one next Fall if I find I may need it.
For Christmas, I got one of those "wireless" mouses. Unfortunately, I thought it was going to be like a remote control. It sort of is, but you have to put a solid surface under it..so walking around with a mouse in one hand and a book/mousepad in the other looks kinda stupid!
