This site contains a collection of helpful hints about your computer. Most have been published in the Colorado River Computer Club Newsletter, but they had to be re-formatted for the Web. This site makes a convenient reference to find something to refresh your memory. I forget some of these things myself after a year or two and now I have a place to look them up. I hope it proves to be useful. Just click on a subject here in the Table of Contents to get to a hint. They are in no particular order.
