Computers update: help to set them up, and additional items

Today I am getting more help from my youngest son Daniel. He is trying out each individual machine, linking to our home internet, and adding free internt security plus a Microsoft-compatible set of free office software.

Testing every cable, mouse, monitior and keyboard.

Dan is hard at work on the Pakati IT equipment

Using some of the funds raised, I have been to local PC and laptop repair shops to search out suitable items to add to the collection. I found another PC at a decent price, plus a laptop too.

I have a neighbour who is also willing to donate a laptop which I hope to pick up tomorrow, and he may have 2 more by this weekend when I intend to take everything to the shipping company.

We will take a look at the laptops before definitely adding them to the list of goods.
