Judy,

Thank you so much for that information. It is such a good idea to give these 
spare computery things I have to a good cause. I appreciate the link and I 
will make use of it.

Thanks also to those of you who have expressed interest in taking this 
equipment, but I believe I have found the proper way to pass it along, thanks 
to Judy. 

Cheers,
Beth
