I picked up my computer from IT and then told the tech to install the crap I told him I needed last time.
I ended up spending two hours in the lab with that and practicing ---- I kept turning my computer off and on to make sure I could do it at home.
I also showed him the web sites I needed for my particular job function . . . .and needed help enabling pop ups for one site . . . . and so on.

Last night (Wed) I turned it on and played around with a few things like making the mouse pointer bigger. . . . I want to look comfortable using the computer when I am around other people.
(My tearing my hair out and cursing Bill Gates does not make me look like I have a firm grip on how to use a PC.
