Announcing the November winner

The winner of this month’s Orange Computer giveaway is:

sawgod65@*****.com

If that’s you, just reply by email and let me know your choice between the laptop or desktop computer and between Windows or Linux for the operating system.

If you didn’t win this month, you are still in the drawing to win in upcoming months. All you have to do is remain subscribed and check your emails from me to see if you won the giveaway drawing and reply to claim.

People from outside the La Crosse area are eligible to win. If you have a United States mailing address, I can ship the computer to you. If you are in the general La Crosse or Viroqua, Wisconsin, areas I can schedule to deliver the computer right to you.

Here are the two computers that the winner can choose from:

• Laptop: HP ProBook 450 G3

• Desktop: HP EliteDesk 800 G3 mini

I do have more of those models available for purchase, if either of those look like they would be a good fit for your computer needs.

You can also take a look at what else is available:

• Orange Computer: Currently Available Laptops & Desktops

Tech Tip: Linux Mint Debian Edition 6 released

A good number of people have had me install Linux on their computers as a replacement for Microsoft Windows, or they’ve purchased a computer from me with Linux pre-installed. In the last couple years, the version of Linux that I have most installed is Linux Mint Debian Edition.

Likely you have LMDE 5. Upgrading to LMDE 6 sometime soon is a good idea. Here’s an article showing how to do it:

If you have questions about how to do that, or would like me to do it for you, feel free to contact me.

Until next time,
