Question from Barry: I have a really old (circa mid-1990s) HP Laserjet 5 mono laser printer that I really love.
I haven’t used this printer in many years. I replaced it with a new one the last time it ran out of toner because replacement HP toner cartridges were very expensive back then.
I was rummaging around online last night and saw that I can get an off-brand toner cartridge for this printer for around $30!
Since the printer was working fine when I stopped using it I’m thinking it’s probably still in working order now. I believe it’s worth spending $30 to find out.
The problem I have is the Laserjet 5 has a Centronics parallel port on it but my new HP desktop computer doesn’t have a parallel printer port.
Do you know of any way I can connect this old printer to this computer?

Question from Gail: I’m getting ready to buy a new computer and my friend said I need to buy a Mac because Microsoft designed Windows 10 to be nothing but a spy tool.

And if it is, why does Microsoft want to spy on people? I must be missing something.

Did you know YouTube maintains a list of every search you’ve ever made via YouTube’s search box?
And did you know they also maintain a list of every video you have ever watched on their site?
This might not seem like a big deal to some folks, especially if the things they search for and the videos they watch aren’t controversial in any way.
However, you might consider it a huge deal if you go to great lengths to protect your online privacy.
