Hi I’m Larry HeiserComputer BASICS for Boomers
I have been asked to help fellow boomers understand the basics of computers in terms and examples that are easy to understand.
I am not a wiz bang certified computer specialist so don’t expect a lot of fast phrased explanations in geek.
Like most of you, I use a computer every day at work and at home, and try to keep up with technology and how it relates to my specific needs.
It is my goal to translate what I have learned in simple terms, in the hope that it will help you better understand how to get the most out of your computer.
In upcoming episodes, I will present what I have come to understand about my computer.
I will talk about
The Central Processing Unit or CPU
Memory – do you have enough
Disk Drives (internal and external) – do you really know what it does.
Memory stick and memory cards
Data and system backup – do you have a backup of your stuff?
External devices that use: USB, FireWire, Bluetooth, and PCMCIA slots.
Internet and networking. Dial-up, DSL, Cable connections
If you have any questions about your computer, I will help you find the answer.
So send me a reply and let me know how I can help.
See you in the next blog.
Thanks
