[Hidden-tech] Friend in need of computer

[David Korpiewski]

Staples has a deal for either a HP or an Acer netbook for 299 the week 
of March 1 only.   That is the cheapest I've ever seen them.  I set up a 
9" netbook for one of my clients and I have to say they are really neat. 
  Can do just about anything and they run Windows XP.  The only thing 
most of them really need is a memory upgrade to 1 or 2 gb.

Good luck
David
