don't feel bad on that count...let's just say, 50-ish and been working professionally in the IT field for, well since about when I started in college some 30+ yrs ago...and guess what? Once these computer games go so fancy and complicated...I was happy with solitare...hehehe...seriously that is about as disinterested in computer games a person can be, so I hear ya. Plus, I have ALWAYS been just dreadful at any computer game...I could write the code but play them? Oooooh, heck no!!
I only pointed out the Gomoku game because it is a game that can serve as a nice distraction and you can play serious like a chess game or just for giggles and play it like checkers. Plus the two games are there for another reason, same as why solitaire was included in Windows since, I think V3, but it's a really nice tool to help a person get comfortable with the joy-stick controller, some people can have a heck of a time with something like that and the extra goodies are a fun learning tool. Plus Gomoku can be pretty simulating to the thought processes...I know I can use all the help I can get there anymore. hehehehe...
As for the font, you might be surprised what the difference a font face can make. but if you are happy good for you...many of us aren't and the font hack is the ONLY thing that kept us from either returning our K2's or selling them. For those of use with various eye issues this hack (it's really a hack in the true sense of the word not the modern misuse of the word thanks to the media...being a hacker was once a very good thing...still is but now they have white hat and black hat hacking, well we used a different word for them way back when...)
Now enjoy that good eyesight and read a book. I just picked up
Confessions of a Barbarian by Edward Abbey...one of my all time favorite writers. His fiction is a lot of fun and his non-fiction about the desert and his experiences there are just very vivid in how he paints that picture in your head as you read along. I really can't wait to really get into it because very few of his works are to be had as ebooks. but I have to finish a system upgrade and swap so reading time is gonna be short the next few days. sniffsniff...
Oh, if you ever get tired of the "screen savers" you can always replace them or add to them with your own images or even photographs...that is fun too...some folks here have gotten pretty creative and silly with their custom jobs.
