OT: strangers asking for books?

[Jim]

Why dont ya come over and pick up one of my old 486s, scrounge some pieces to 
make it functional, and hook the student up to the internet and point him/her 
to the wealth of information about programming?  ::grin::

If I was a hardware geek, I would go that kinda thing for the 'students' in 
my neighborhood.  What better tool can you give anyone than access to the 
world!
