BEGINNER'S SIG USING VISTA

These are classes designed for the person who is new to computers and will include lots of “how to” and will include very little technical matter. It will be very low on a scale of geek-ness. The basic principle is that you do not need to know how your computer does things as long as you know how to make it do the things that you want to accomplish with it.

It is anticipated that we will likely have 6-8 sessions but this may vary since we will take the time to discuss questions which may take more time. While there will be structure to the intended curriculum, it will be taught at the pace of the audience.

The demonstration computer will be running Windows Vista, but you do not need the newer operating system to benefit from these classes.  The meetings will be easy, friendly and fun. Join us and bring a friend or two.
