Thanks for your suggestion, all are valid.
I'm going to stick to my game plan on persuade him to purchase and sharing
the cost for a card or an adapter, that will ease the pain. I think he is
getting a sweet deal from me, sort of speak.
While typing, on my previous post. This plan an idea came from reading
everyone's view.
I just want to keep him around Trisquel GNU/LINUX and the concept of
"Libre" software.
In the future, As he becomes Linux savvy, If he chooses to "drift" to other
Linuxes That would be his decision, not mines.
I could said: I did my best from the start.
I will go the extra mile, to keep him around, not taking any short cuts yet.
When I was introduced to Linux. no one help me, I learn by reading and
experimenting with other distributions. I discover GNU/LINUX specially
Trisquel by accident. I'm not a developer or a software writer, but a person,
who had problems of a particular proprietary software that I paid for,
suddenly stop working. Specially when the old laptop was still working.
