Here are a couple of options for the expo computer this year - thoughts and comments are welcome:

  • Option 1: Use the current hard drive with the old hardware that's sitting in Austria at the moment.
    • Pros: won't cost anything
    • Cons: it's a right old a pain to update the hard drive and get it all working (programs installed etc) in the UK and then hope it still works in Austria. Also it takes up loads of room in the tatty hut.
  • Option 2: Buy a laptop (a decent refurbished laptop would be available for about £200)
    • Pros: Can get it all working nicely in the UK and all is then good.
    • Cons: Costs a bit of money.
      • I like this option if we have the cash - or perhaps someone has an old laptop they could donate or sell to expo for a small sum? Kathryn
