Computers December 12, 2004, 07:01:08 pm Yahoo Message Number: 47742I am a computer dummy but have been using my first ever Toshiba PC for 5 years now and am still mostly satisfied with it. I have been toying with the idea of replacing it. My usage is mostly email with some internet usage and some surfing occasionally. I have used Juno since day 1 as it was free at first and now costs me $4.95/month (senior rates). I like Juno primarily as I can use it without having to go onto the web! A local phone call and I am done. No tieing up the phone lines and arguments with my wife. Juno will not work with Mac... Besides email I also do banking online, and occasionally use BillPay to cover bills not regularly handled by my banks. We were fulltimers for 18 months and I did get connected with a cellphone in the comforts of my motorhome using Verizon. Once online I could get my email via Juno webmail. Or, I used the phone lines provided by campgrounds. I also have a wifi card and use cafes occasionally. I do get spam and my computer is freezing up more lately (old age?). Maybe I am not so dumb? Staying off the net has probably prevented many problems that seem to afflict Microsoft. Would those with lots more experience than I recommend sticking with MS or starting over with a Mac? Which Mac laptop would you recommend? The ibook G4 or the Powerbook G4? Thanks for your suggestions. Mike.
