Computer and Software for Malden Day Care Center 25 Feb 2003
We have a day care center for Seniors in Malden Massachusetts that has several Seniors who attend GBSCG meetings regularly and would enjoy being able to use a computer as a recreational tool and a learning experience. The Senior Day Care is presently located at 100 Hospital Road in Malden and serves seniors from the surrounding area 5 days a week. I know any computer equipment would be a help in improving their quality of life.

Computer Books and Modem 9 Sep 2002
I have a number of books on Microsoft software that I will no longer use, dealing with Microsoft Works for DOS, Windows 95, Windows ME, Word 97 and Office 97. Some are fairly elementary, while others are quite technical. Some also include floppies or CD's.

Anybody who can use any of these is welcome to them. If you can think of any organization that might use them, please let me know. If nobody wants them, they will go to the town dump/sanitary landfill/transfer station/recycling center, where maybe someone will pick them up.

Also, a friend of mine has an old external modem which he no longer needs. It is a ZOOM/FAXMODEM FX 9624, made by Zoom Telephonics. It has a plug-in power supply and a DB-9 Female to DB-25 Male cable. Again, it's yours for the taking away.
