Import Old emails and Contacts to Gmail

This is a tough one if you don't have computer experience, but hopefully I can make it simple for you.
Contacts:
To import your contacts to Gmail go to your contacts and export them using CVS file format and save them on to your computer. Open Gmail click on Contacts in Gmail and import the CVS files into Gmail. You'll have to locate the files from your computer and click the import button and your done importing your Contacts from your old email account.
Emails:
You can use the help of these alternate softwares to make your life easier

For Outlook Email export try this program, the only bad thing is that it will change your email date to present email import date. But it will get the job done.

You go to email settings in the forwarding and pop link. Just type in the email address you want to impersonate, wait for the confirmation email to confirm account and your set. You then choose the email you want your emails to come from. It's a great solution for someone who want to use their job email address and personal email account via one email account.

Think of it as Bluetooth getting better. You not only get a choice of different colors but can pair three devices without having to disconnect from them.

It's only a matter of time before they correct it's little bugs. But besides that. It looks like bluetooth is going in a great direction.

Free PC with broadband

Here's the catch if you can afford $19.99 a month for three years this might be a nice deal for you. You get 8mb of broadband a 17 inch monitor, 160 gig hard drive, 512 mb or ram with Window XP media center and an upgrade voucher for Vista, when it comes out.
It's not for everyone but it's a good start for an affordable PC that's priced at $500- with broadband.
