Greetings on this overcast day. My wife if visiting her parents in Latvia. She will take a notebook to give to them so that they can communicate with us and watch our home DVDs. I purchased a Lenovo T61 in great shape from ebay. It has windows XP on it and a few good extras so I would like to keep it for the good hires graphics and DVD playability. I need to configure it for Latvian as cheap as possible (i.e. $0). My plan is to use Google to the fullest extent possible. For Windows XP, I installed a Latvian version of Firefox and set the home page to Google.lv/ig to get them into the Google mode (I will create an account). I also installed a Latvian version of Wubi just for snob appeal. My wife has friends in Riga that are computer savvy but we hate to impose.
I would appreciate any suggestions that you have on how to make this system work. It looks great to me, but my parents-in-law are not computer savvy and neither is my wife who is going alone to Riga to give them the machine. Thanks for the help.
