Da PC's PC is up and running. Firewalled, spam & virus protected. He plugged one USB cable into the hub on the monitor and didn't plug the small end into the computer. There's no keyboard or mouse PS2 ports on the computer. He's whining that Vista's slow... I downloaded OpenOffice, Vuze, iTunes, Quicktime, Java, Picasa, Firefox, and Adobe Reader. He claims he wants to do video editing and picture editing. I'll have to wait and see if he does. I'm going to guess the 1T drive is a bit of overkill. It's got rooms for quite a few minutes of video.
