Hi...... I'm a 54 year old graphics designer who came 'late' to computers. I know how to do my work... I just don't know much at all about how to get the machine to do the best it can. I have a J700 with 'enough' ram (256 Mb) and an 18 Gig hard drive as the main drive. I DON'T have anything to 'speed up' the computer (like the XLR8 upgrade I've heard about).
I know that there are software products that will do things like 'defrag' my hard drive and remove 'unnecessary' files (like duplicate files and leftovers from removed programs). I just don't know what those programs are... or how to use them. Would you please 'guide me'... or direct me to a site or sites that will 'gently' lead me through the process of getting my computer up to speed. I know I must have a ZILLION files that aren't necessary. I'm guessing that most folks at this site know way more than I do... so 'posting' the information might be uninteresting for them. Feel free to write to me directly. Thanks...... Hal _______________________________________________ Can a Web portal forever change your life?
