Announcing the September winner

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

t**arbers@*****.com

Congratulations Tom!

To claim his prize, he’ll just need to reply by email and let me know if he wants the laptop or the desktop computer and if he wants Windows or Linux installed on it.

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 Tom 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: Make sure your web browser is updated

Within the last week or so, there’s been a major security issue discovered with the webp image format. The biggest issue with it is in web browsers, but operating systems and office suites are also compromised.

I recommend making sure that your web browser (Firefox, Chrome or other) is up to date. Also running the updates for your operating system (Windows, macOS or Linux) is a good idea. LibreOffice has also released a security update for this issue, too.

If you have questions about how to do that, feel free to contact me.

Until next time,

— Matthew from Orange Computer
