This TINY trick will SPEED up your computer!

Posted by M. C. on February 18, 2023

An old computer is the perfect place to expand your horizons and not be subject to MS snooping. Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora etc can be had for little to no cost. If you have the space most of these will let you install along side Windows. You just have to pick the one you want when turning on. There will be limitations just as with Tiny Windows. https://www.shoplinuxonline.com/

Don’t Offend The Masters of the Universe.

Posted by M. C. on June 4, 2019

My netbook was close to it’s second hard drive replacement so I sprung for a Dell.

Be seeing you
