I made an application to the June Opie trust in june. They are a trust that offers grants to students on low incomes (with a disability) to purchase needed technical equipment. Was told that I would hear in the first week in July. Came back from Australia, no letter. Rang several weeks later and recieved the news that I had been accepted, however it wouldnt be able to be purchased straight away as the woman was going away on holiday.

Well, on Monday, the cheque arrived and I got to go shopping. My new laptop is an acer aspire 5610. It seems to have so much better battery life than the toshiba brick and it seems so much lighter as well

Thanks So much June Opie
