I'm not very computer savvy but I have a question that I would love some help with.I have an oldish HP mini netbook that my wife and I mainly used for web browsing. Recently, it took a short fall and Windows stopped working (we had another one previously that the same thing happened to , and my tech-savvy FIL said it was toast, hence giving us his unused one) This time around, I had explored the computer a little more and discovered it had something called HP QuickWeb, which boots and runs…See More

Dear Dr. Horner,
My five year old son is HUGELY obsessed with dinosaurs. He has seen all three Jurassic Park movies, watched several documentaries about dinosaurs, has dinosaur toys and books, and even knows where one of his older dinosaur books that we got at a used book sale has incorrect information with regards to…

The following I originally shared on Google+ and then added to my personal blog for Speak Out with your Geek Out but thought that I could go ahead and post it here, too; a brand new forum to discus all of geekery. It explains why I am indebted to the GeekDad blog, and am excited for this new GeekDad community, where, hopefully, I can really feel like I am a part of. The original follows:
Most of my life I've had a hard time feeling like I fit in with anyone (Don't run away, this…
