Re: A recent letter

Paul, I have seen many of the "free computer" deals. All that I have seen
involve a monthly charge which is more than an ISP would charge, and there
are some ISP available FREE now! Also the computers involved are usually
quite obsolete by todays standards, and you need to wait until the rebates
come back after you lay out a few hundred dollars. I would suggest anyone who
needs a computer, to find someone who can tell you what you need in computing
power, and go to a reliable store, buy a system put together, matched, and
tested. Pay a fair price and get a REAL bargain. My Aptiva (IBM) was not
cheap and is outdated by today's standards, but except for when I let someone
try to "improve it" for me and I had to reformat the hard drive just to get
my modem working again!  Usually, in computers, you "get what you pay for" I
LOVE bargains, but real ones are scarce!  Just my 2 cents!
