arti's computer

updated tue 30 mar 04

is all set.

i just called him, we talked...he is very
pleased with the new computer, and he is
a bit overwhelmed. i told him i found it, after it
fell off a truck. he laughed.

his voice is weak, and his speech is a bit slow.
motor skill is weak.

so, the tower, ibm workstation, p800, 20 gig hard is ready.
(this is not a home computer. tough industrial one.)
so, he has a good start.
still has warranty.
a lapper is not good for him. too hard to deal with.
too small.
he needs the big keyboard.

and, my buddy at the used computer company did us
a favor. so, lots of bang for our buck.

and, this has everything...modem, disc, floppy, all.
i will ship it monday. his comcast isp is still in service.

arti sends his love.

thanks to several of you that have given
help towards this special gift.

we were able to get him a nice new, flat screen
monitor.
still in the box. my guys had to add a stand, but it
is a nice one.

the ibm computer is all loaded with win2000nt.
it will be nice and stable for him.
better than win98second.

it comes with a new keyboard, mouse.
so, he will be in dandy shape.
it is a p800
20 gig hard drive...128 megs of ram.
a nice dell modem.
so, all in all, we did very well, and got a great
deal of computer for a small outlay of cash.
nice.
i like a bargain, esp when it goes to arti.
mel
i will ship it all to him tomorrow.
our guys have official packing materials and boxes
for computers.
it will get there, very well.
