Here’s one even your Grandmother can use.

Duncan
Telikin computer

Do you have a friend or family member that you would
like to get online, but computers are just too complicated
for them, the Telikin may be the answer.

It is a touch screen computer with a very simple user interface
with just those things that people really use the most. Email, photos,
Internet Browser, Video chat, Calendar, News, Weather, Games.
The interface removes all the complicated things you usually deal with.

And it is based on the Linux operating system so it is much
more secure from Viruses than a Microsoft Windows PC.

Granny will love it. She will even make you that special treat you loved as a kid.

Here are links to the site and a YouTube video about it.

Time to start saving up your money, Granny is going to
want it for her Birthday.

Are You Playing The Keyboard Shuffle?

Duncan
Keyboard

Do you have so many monitors, keyboards, & mice on your desk you don’t have room to get any work done?

Do you use several computers but never got around to buying a KVM switch? Just one more thing to add to the clutter, Huh!

Would you like to use just ONE keyboard and mouse to control PC, Mac, and Linux without adding hardware or spending extra money?

Well now you can with Synergy, a free open source utility that allows you to easily share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers on the same network. Nothing to buy, no hardware to install, just download and install the latest version of Synergy on all the computers you want to control. Then tell it which monitors are to the left or right of each other (or above or below). Then sit back and relax as you move your mouse from one screen to the other and even copy and paste things between systems. It works like a charm, I use it everyday. If you have a laptop you connect and disconnect from the setup to take with you; no problem, it will still work with the others just fine until you reconnect the laptop to your setup.

You can download the latest version of Synergy here: http://synergy-project.org
