Oy. The stickshift-vs-automatic comment made me laugh.
OTOH - perhaps someone who hadn't heard of Linux or the fact that Dell sells
Linux-loaded laptops has come across this story and learned the good news.
Additionally, it sounds like the online courses have said they'll accept
her work in "whatever format", which is good to hear. And Verizon is going
to make sure she can get on the internetz.
Of course... what if she had bought a Mac? *dunn dunn DUNN*
