To Err Is Human

To Really Screw Up You Need

A Computer

Have you put your computer in the closet?  Have you tried to turn it on, but don’t know where the “on” button is?  Have you pushed a button and error messages pop up on the screen?  Have you turned off the computer, and it yelled at you the next time you turned it on?  Have you asked your teenage neighbor how to turn off the computer and he gave you that “look”?  Do your grandkids know more than you on the computer?

If you have experienced any of the above scenarios or something similar, and wish to change that scenario, then this book is for you.  I have designed the book in a simple, easy to understand format.  I have tried not to use technical language in my explanations and  given steps to commands in a simple and easy to follow manner. 

This book is by no means all-inclusive, but designed to help the novice user acquire some knowledge in working with the computer.  I have laid out the book in a format that starts by explaining what the computer is, followed by the details of operating the computer.

It is recommended that you follow the book from page one to get the most benefit from it.  After that, the book should be used as a reference guide to fine tuning the operations you want to learn the most.  I have found in teaching computers to senior citizens and even college students that the most important thing is to practice, practice, and practice even more.  Some people can pick up computers very easily; however, the rest of us need to practice .

I have also found that the desire to learn is important.  If you are afraid of the technology of a computer or the machine itself, it will inhibit you from learning and truly comprehending what you are doing.  Computers are fun.  You can learn so much today from exploring the Internet to sending email to family and friends.  You can scan photos from your shoe boxes, and send them to family members.  You can communicate with people on the other side of the world and it will not cost you a fortune. 

You can play games, type letters, start a computer business, or find information on any subject.  The list is endless.  I know sometimes computers can give you a headache, but through practicing and not being afraid  you can achieve a high satisfaction from the computer.  Always remember that no matter what you do to the computer, it can be fixed.  After all, it is just a machine, and like all machines they can have issues.

There is a great deal of knowledge out there ; this book will help you corner some of that knowledge in a simplistic way, and begin the journey into the wonderful world of computers.

“All the many stupid questions I’ve had about computers (but have been afraid to ask) were easily and clearly dealt with in Karin’s Manual – a “must read” for all those who have the common manual avoidance tendency.” (Harold Weller—Conductor/Music Director -Las Vegas Philharmonic)

 

"So you have a computer Now what??? Basic Introduction is a book that everyone starting out with a computer should have on their book shelf. Straight-forward, easy and most of all NON-intimidating this book sets itself apart from other computer books. You WILL learn the basics in a simple way and at the same time have fun too. I highly recommend it for those with no computer knowledge as a time saver to those still baffled by computer technology. Robin Dayne (Internationally known radio show host & Trading Coach on "You, Your Money and the Market")

 

“Finally!!!  A computer book for beginners.  The instructions are so clear and easily followed you'll soon find yourself doing exciting things on the computer you never thought you could do.  And yes, it does tell you how to turn the computer on. Can't wait for the next issue.” (BJ Evans)
