Wow nice one, I got my apple mac for free too. Although mine was new I got it for being dyslexic. I tend to go for software that I can download that way there is less packaging but it is also easier. There is a lot of free software out there on open source that people miss out on.

http://www.download.com I always find a good place to look.

I hear that Mac run unix or are similar or something not entirley sure thats where the computer geekness leaves me.


I bet there are thousands of computers in land fill sites that are perfectly useable. They should at least give them away rather than chuck them. I think that there are some companies that recycle office computers or at least I know there used to be. But with computers gettting cheaper and the day of $100 pc looming I think many more pc's will end up in the ground after they are out of date in two years.
