Seniors 08/12/2004 02:16 AM
America Online on Thursday said it plans to sell a low-priced PC targeting low-income and minority households who agree to sign up for a year of dialup Internet service. The online unit of Time Warner Inc will begin selling the computer and service at Office Depot this month. The launch is part of a broad strategy at the recovering online service, which watched 2.2 million members abandon its service.

Over the past two years, the company has attempted to find new sources of revenue by appealing to different categories of customers including the Spanish-speaking and teen markets. Executives said it hoped to attract the 27 percent of U.S. households comprised of seniors, African Americans and Hispanics who do not yet own a PC. The computers will come configured with a simple desktop with large icons that send users to specific areas of the AOL service or applications loaded on the computer. They can also be preconfigured for Spanish language speakers.

I thought it was just an oddity of my particular set up, but I've heard from a reader that he's having the same problem: If you do the ^F search thing on this very page as viewed in Microsoft Internet Explorer, Explorer will terminally hang and you'll have to Ctl-Alt-Del your way out of it. But, wait, it's weirder than that! Search for a word that's visible and near the top, and it'll work. For example, if you're reading this in the main blog, not in an archive, try searching for "LCD". Should be fine. Now try searching for "Scotty,"...

Slow news day? Yeah, except for a probe about to land on another planet. And Afghanistan on the verge of giving itself a constitution. And the New York Times claiming that Pakistan is the hub of the international traffic in the...
