I'm not using it at the moment but except for the keyboards issue I didn't find it problematic but each person's view on this will be different. We all should consider the possibility of theft or if other people are living with us or coming into our home regularly, the possibility that somebody will intentionally or unintentionally play around with our computer but the level of concern will be different for each person so you need to decide for yourself. Of course if you leave the computer on and logged in, you will need to have other protection systems in place as well.
-- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! Then God gave me a new heart and life: His joy for my despairing tears! And now, every day: "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
