My netbook was the last thing I didn't need probably
I was bored and not looking forward to a lecture, so bought it to cheer myself up.

I now envisage hair pulling and screaming as I try to set up the wireless internet on it.

Should be incredibly simple
Bear in mind it might have a switch on the front or side to turn the wireless on and off.

Trust me........I will be spending days trying to get it set up.
The man from BT set wireless up on my main laptop when he came to set up the internet modem and phone.

Gaz me if anything goes wrong
What type of netbook is it?

Thank you very much. I am going to try myself first though because it's only fair I teach myself a lesson for being reckless with my money.
It's an Acer aspire one AOA110-Bb.

Got it from laptops direct with slight case damage.

Huzzah!
I have been very lucky with choosing my current laptop thanks to help from B3tans.

that sounds like a bargain
I could do with one, but can't quite justify even that much at the moment :-/

You're not wrong
I looked back the next day and couldn't fully understand why I'd done it.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 26 Oct 2010, 15:03, Reply)

i was looking at them today
but since my main computer needs MAJOR upgrades, including a monitor that isn't the size of the desk (yes, still on CRT) I think it might have to wait
