  Well, without knowing exactly which version of which operating system 
  you are using, I can't make any concrete suggestions, and if you are 
  using an OS that I am not familiar with, I will not be able to make any 
  recommendations, either, but someone else familiar with your OS might.

  Yeah, I am familiar with your problem... it is called aphasia. I also 
  have a brain injury from a stroke I had in 1994, and reading writing, 
  spelling and numbers are all affected, but over the years, I learned 
  some workarounds, like using a good spell-checker and a grammar-checker, 
  and a calculator for handling numbers.

  It still takes me about five times longer to write something, than it 
  did before the stroke, but the spell-checker really helps out a lot... 
  you might want to try it.

  I am running Windows 2000 on two of my computers (Graphics Workstation 
  and print/fileserver, Linux on my Desktop machine, OpenBSD on my 
  web/mail servers, and FreeBSD on a second desktop and practice machine.

  All of my machines can talk to each other one way or another. Right now, 
  how do you connect to the Internet... with a phone connection, or with a 
  DSL connection?

  Right now, do you have any of your machines networked with each other, 
  with ethernet cables and network interface cards?

  Take one thing at a time, starting with a clear description of the 
  current state of your computers, and how they are presently connected to 
  each other.
