I'm moving into the foothills this week - a situation presented that involves taking care of 5 Arabians and their barn, with a caretaker apt (that is at least as big as the place I'm in now) attached. <reverent mode> Manna from heaven. Truly.
So I'm frantically sorting and purging, and must now ask the computer-saavy here what I should have last month: I've been given 2 computers for home use (primarily I'll use for word processing and a little email, don't care about games or fancy graphics; use the T1 line at the office for serious research): -Macintosh Performa 6220CD/75 16/1 GB -Hewlett Packard Pavillion 6535 "designed for Windows 98," w/ Intel Celeron sticker I'm thinking the HP, especially since I haven't worked with a Mac before - any opinions? (Or merely hysterical laughter? ;} ) Books-gifts received: to read or not to read/keep/move? -Greg Bear's _Slant_ (inclined to try unless told to toss) -L. Neil Smith's _Bretta Martyn_ (going to pitch unless it gets *significantly* better than the first 3 chapters - tiresome decadent old lizards with nekkid virtual-slave female 'servants' --oh, pu-LEEZ). I will be checking my email every few days, but won't have time to do much interacting/non-urgent research until I've completed the move. TIA- Debbi She Who Must Now Pack At Warp Speed Maru ;) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
