Help for the Technologically-Challenged Computer Shopper

If you are anything like me, you know just enough about computers to get by; emailing, surfing the net, composing documents on word, talking on Skype—and that is about it. In a shrill and slightly apologetic voice, I call my most computer-savvy friend every time I hit a wall where I can’t figure something out that I need.

First of all, if you’ve been putting off getting that larger TV, then BestBuy is the place to check out.  For one thing, select TVs are selling for 5-15% off plus free shipping!  If for some reason the TV you want isn’t included in that discount, you can still get free shipping for TVs 37” and larger, which if you consider their weight, is considerable savings.
