I broke my cherry!  I'm officially a hacker!

Woo-hoo!  Cheers  Next week, I can show you how to hack golfhos so that every time Aske posts it subtracts from his post count and adds to yours.

Now, I'm sure there is a ton of *feces* I need to do to make it mine, where do I start?   Cheesy






But seriously, similar to spacey's thoughts.  Do you trust your source for this computer?  This isn't some elaborate phishing scheme to get banking info or anything is it?

If you're not going to do a fresh install, I'd probably start with your favorite anti-virus and spyware apps and uninstall the things you aren't going to use.

Well, first, a big thank you to you.

I do trust the source.  This is a good friend of mine, who does IT networking for a very big company here (I won't say who, but they are know for making pacemakers  Wink )

He has *feces* like this pile up at his house and replaces/recycles pcs all the time.  People there move on, upgrade, etc.  He's got printer and copy machines coming out the wazoo.  And could tile his bathroom with 15 inch lcd monitors. He also had a brand new macbook pro that some lady spilled coffee on the keyboard.  He sent it off to Apple, they replaced the components.  In the meantime, she just ordered a new one.  He gave it to my brother in law.  Angry  Oh, well I got this one.

As far as security/app.s  The only thing I ever plan to use it for is to suf Hos from the couch, but more importantly when we leave and stay in a hotel.

Truth is, I would have been just fine with having Ubuntu, and firefox.  Other than plugging a DVD in for Maddie to watch during car rides, that truly is all I'll use it for.

That's great!  Thumbs Up I thought you'd said something about getting it from a friend, but wanted to make sure.  Sounds like it'll be nice to have an extra machine around.

(And I've never heard of Vision XP)

If it works anything like their pacemakers, that laptop should inexplicably quit at precisely the moment you are driving onto a dangerous two lane bridge spanning a large canyon.
