    • Note: Some brothers have had success doing this, but we are unable to offer support or assistance. Perhaps a local brother in your congregation good with computers can assist.

If all of the above options do not work or are not suitable, it may be quicker and easier to simply purchase a cheap Windows computer. A cheap laptop can be purchased for only around $200. It would not be unreasonable to make such a purchase for congregation matters.
