Nope. I spend literally all my computer “facetime” online, and 90+ per cent of that on FR. As you’ve probably noticed, eh? I forget how I heard about it, but saved a link on the bar of my browser.

Oh, and let’s not forget OpenOffice. My best friend had to have the nerd or geek or something come in, pull the CPU, take it off to do the data transfer onto a new drive (he could have just asked me, but whatever), and reinstall the OS from my friend’s CDs. Friend had been using MS Office, but apparently it was (ahem) unauthorized, as he tried the old, “I can’t seem to find my disks, but can you reinstall it without them?” line of bull. Of course it did not work (obviously the kid technician has *no future prospects* as a cable TV employee), so I pointed my friend in the direction of OpenOffice, and he d/led and installed it himself, had no trouble, thought it ran noticeably faster than MS’s, and also has been impressed by the unobtrusive and non-system-breaking automatic software updates.
