I'm about to purchase and setup a new laptop for my pa-in-law. He's going to be 70, and is ready to move into Powerpoint-land for the talks and lectures he gives.
I've seen some laptops have hd partitions for data/recovery/backup. Is it worth doing that? What are the benefits? How would I do it?
He also wants to work anywhere around the house, rather than just his office, where he has a router with Phone Coop wired to his workstation. Not sure yet whether the router is wireless. If it's not and he only has one Ethernet port, how can I get it so he can work at his kitchen table?
And are there any decent laptop bargains out there at the moment? I'm looking at spending around £350-£400 and will need Office on there. I need to get it to him by his birfday on 7 December, 8 days away.
Thanks.
