Okay. I feel like a bit like a fool for this, but only a bit.
I do not have much experience with computers beyond emailing people,
superficially browsing the web, and using "user-friendly" software which requires only that one click on "I agree" and "next" buttons.
I just learned how to copy and paste on my job, and was thrilled to learn it applied at home too. (Is that moronic, or what! :huh: )
My question:
Where can I go to educate myself, (I mean on the web....I can't afford school), so I can best utilize my roommate's computer?
This in regards to all this "filesharing"-"mpg"-"memory cards"-and just computer stuff in general.
I'm may be just out of the starting gate, but you do have to start somewhere!
I read fast and learn fast, so it's not daunting to me, only temporarily inaccessible. (Laymen's terms will be needed at first, but not for long.)
So.
To quote from...I forget which book:
(Although I suspect it's from Douglas Adams)
"Assume I know nothing."
"Nothing would give me greater pleasure."
