Hi Terry,
I again thank you for your really great newsletters. I can’t help but wonder why you and a couple other computer helps newsletters I receive are giving all these great tips and info about Windows 7 when so many of us don’t have it yet and won’t till October. Sure hope all these helpful tips will be repeated when I have it which I will end of October! Not complaining, just curious. Bev
I will have them posted as web site content by then – but you brought up a good point. Once Windows 7 is released, I ought to list the articles in the newsletter for quick reference and quick linking to them.
Meanwhile, I’m trying to show that the change to Windows 7 won’t be scary and that, if anything, it will be more friendly.
Also, remember that I’m running Win 7 Release Candidate ON A 5-YEAR-OLD NOTEBOOK! This isn’t the latest, greatest, fastest hardware available…

Auto starting programs are a nightmare! Thankfully I bought a mac and I don’t have to deal with all that anymore.
