I'm partial to Avast lately, seems to eat up less system resources, and has the wonderful "boot-time scan" option, which seems to catch just about anything. I imagine the adult program will be setup with emails, we'll have to wait to hear from Clarence.

We'll have legal licenses, but how does everyone feel about sending the adults out with Office instead of OpenOffice.org? On the one hand, promoting free & open source software is a good thing, on the other hand, adults are more likely to need skills with MS Office for employment. >> The resale machines shouldn't be a problem, as long as we have an OEM >> CD, which is easy enough to acquire if we don't. > We don't and could use one or two -- could you acquire those for us?

Tonight's most likely out, but I can definitely make it by the shop Saturday. I don't know that I'll have had the time to prepare the cd's we've been discussing (probably should be doing that while work isn't paying me), but we can discuss plans, schedules & what-not. -Scott
