Good Morning, supposed to get colder all day long today.

Bro Bob called me last night. Moved his Mac computer to a different location and now it doesn't work. He had not plugged in the monitor AND the batteries were dead on the wireless keyboard and mouse both. Says he has 5 sets of wireless keyboards and mice. All of them the batteries were dead. Told him since he was on a budget to buy a wired keyboard and mouse. Said he couldn't afford it. Batteries are $5. You can get a cheap wired keyboard and mouse for $15. He said I didn't understand.

Told him I gave him my old iMac because I was tired hearing about him getting viruses and malware and having to pay Geek Squad to keep cleaning his computers up. And that it seemed like with 5 computers he could sell some of them and get a wired keyboard and mouse. Then he would have a computer that was a whole lot less likely to get malware and wouldn't have to keep buying batteries to be able to use.

Have been telling him for 15 years he needs to dump his PCs and get a Mac. He say's I don't understand he can't afford it. Then goes out and spends more money on keeping his PCs running. In that time he has gotten 5 desktop PCs, and none of them work because they are loaded down with malware and virus's (he clicks on anything he receives in emails to check it out) despite paying Geek Squad $300 a year to help him keep them running.

Nope, I don't understand.
