     that lasted until she couldn't get on the wifi. pretty sure her wifi card shit the bed so I gave her my usb wifi dongle. it didn't automatically configure the driver so I pulled out the little disc that came with it. the disc also didn't install the driver automatically. there was a linux folder on it containing presumably everything I needed, but when running the install.sh she couldn't type her password into the terminal. my brother brought her a windows surface and she gave up immediately
