Students can volunteer 5 hours or pay $25. to upgrade to a Windows 7 computer. The computers come with a 1 year tech support guarantee and an extensive suite of software. Use the THCP Registration link at the top of this page to register or call us at 510-893-4822
After completing the class, the students will receive a voucher, that will entitle them to pick up their home computers from OTX-West on our distribution day (typically every 1st Saturday of the month).
