* I have an old computer, what should I do with it? * A computer is more like a car than a fine wine, with very few exceptions it does not get better with age. If you have a computer that you are no longer using, why not pass it along? The United Way of Greater Stark County has a list of organizations that need your help and will accept old computer equipment.

* LibreOffice. LibreOffice is still in development, if it doesn't work well on your particular configuration then I suggest: * OpenOffice. A solid office solution, but having been purchased by Oracle its freedom and future are in question. * AbiWord. A good word processor. It does mail merges more gracefully than either Libre or Open Office. * Microsoft Office. Industry standard. It's failings (aside from price) are that each new version drops support for the previous version's documents.…

HTC Droid Incredible I have wanted to investigate rooting an android phone, but without incurring the risk of bricking my personal phone. (Un)fortunately, a friend dropped theirs and needed to purchase a replacement. The phone is still usable, but the display is cracked. It seems that replacing the glass is another project I will be investigating.

* AntiVirus - Avast! free edition * For those situations where Avast! does not suit, then I recommend AVG * SpyWare - SpyBot use the immunize function * Ad-Aware is also good, but lacks the immunize function * MalWare - MalwareBytes * You probably don't need SpyBot and MalWareBytes. Use SpyBot for systems that are not currently infected and MarwareBytes for removing existing infections.
