A:Answer Everybody's answers are good ones. I myself am closing in on 70 and fullly sympathize, so I would like to add another couple of possibilities: 1) You can buy an external keyboard; this is usually white letters and numbers on a black background, so more conventionally easy to read, but can also be purchased with backlighting, but is more troublesome to carry around. 2) Another option is a USB LED light. I don't know if Best Buy has these, but they are available elsewhere if need be, and work well. They attach to the laptop port (or a hub, if you prefer) and are flexible, like a gooseneck lamp. LED lamps means they are long lasting and use little battery , while producing little heat.
