I brought up the Chromebook in an email thread. Its a great idea, as the Acer is only $199. If none of the donation offers work out, then I'll set up a kick starter for it and post a link here.

Why try get some cash together when people have already made offers to pass on a computer? Surely the postage will be cheaper. I just like the idea of things being passed on to a home that needs it, maybe a bit of attention and good to go. We don't fix enough things in our throw away society. Send littlebirdie the T500 AND the black mac, surely one will be good enough.

I've got Mac system disks and windows OS disks. I'm happy to fix up either of the laptops offered on this thread for her. Or I'm happy to throw a couple bucks. So glad she's ok.

Yes, I agree. None of the offers was up when I suggested that.

A good point.
