Wireless access at home, part II

The old laptop I'm using to write this entry has a PCMCIA card plugged in, and so is the third wireless device configured to use the home network. I'm at Tim's desk.

My hope is that I can get him to play some of the educational games on the computer if he has network access, too. In the past I tried to get him to do that, but he figured a computer without an internet hookup is useless. So the only one he used was the PC upstairs, the main machine I want to use as well.

Although it's PIII 500 MHz processor and 128 MB RAM make this Vaio a relic, the only serious shortcoming I see against using this one for what Tim and Emma and potentially Diane want to do is that the sound card is somehow broken, probably as the result of a fall a while ago. No way to hear, "Hi! I'm Barbie!" when you visit Barbie.com.
