Mum was not exactly a power user so it is very low specked. It will also need to be reset, which embarrassingly, I cant seem to be able to do.
Please don't ask me for it because I cant be bothered dealing with lots of people. Just give me the name of a low decile school that may have use for it and I will drop it off.
