Hi Kaye, Why don't you try the www.about.com site. Type in Parkinson's for your subject. I find this site very useful for a number of topics. They have discussion forums, chat's and all kinds of links and articles. I am sure you would be able to find something helpful there in terms of getting your friend's computer set up etc.
Hope that helps, Amber On Sunday, June 2, 2002, at 04:34 PM, Kaye Griffin wrote: > Hi Everybody, > I have an elderly friend with Parkinson's Disease who is interested in > getting a used computer for surfing the Internet.
