My netbook computer has no external hard drive and I cannot load programs from disks. What would you suggest and what do they cost?

Hello,

To load software onto a netbook you have three choices available.

1. Download the software online (if applicable)
2. Purchase an external CD/DVD Rom (FS.CA External DVD Search)
3. Use File & Printer sharing on your home network with another PC and use that PC’s optical drive.  If you select this option it is recommended to plug the netbook into the network via a LAN cable where possible, it will be noticeably faster.

Hope that helps!
