I know of at least one person who is in need of a computer. Her motherboard was fried and now the computer is of no use at all except for certain parts (memory, hard drive, the sort of thing). It does not boot and has no CD-ROM drive to boot from. I truly need to find something for her. She is not only a friend but sees me as being able to "fix" most computer problems. I told her I couldn't resurrect from the dead, but she still thinks I can produce a working computer. I considered putting in a new motherboard, but the fact was that the computer was beginning to enter its "twilight months". It was starting to be one thing after another. Not worth the cost of repairs, many of which were done as a favor to a friend. If anyone has, or know of a computer capable of running Windows XP (or possibly she will resort to Linux...can Linux run AOL?), I would appreciate it. Even not as a donation, I am willing to pay for one.
