These pages have been written by me, RSBlain "a senior", to help other seniors with the very basics of computing.  I hope my entries will do that.  I have divided the pages into topics you can look at as your need arises or, read them all and see what you think I should improve on.  I have gone over it trying to make it less confusing than any helps you might find on the internet.  If you see something still not of help, follow my link to my Xanga site and email me from there.   Read and practice one thing at a time.  It's all easy after you practice.  You can print pages out for your use. 

This tutorial pertains to
Microsoft Windows PC

Newcomers to computing are very often like I used to be,  afraid of their computers and what they think they might do to destroy them by clicking on the wrong tab or button.  I can tell you there are things you don't have free reign to do, safely, in your computer.  I have probably made all of the mistakes that can be made to upset my personal computer and my patient husband who has spent weeks more than once, undoing things I did ...
