What I wanted to find was internet sites that would help people who are shut-in. I'm finding my way around this internet world, but there are people here who don't have the benefit of being able to get out of the house. I've got a fractured back and I also have neuropathy, so I am at least temporarily house-bound and who knows maybe permanently. Is there any place on the web where people like me can learn more?

Is your computer a Apple/ MAC or a PC?
Do you need beginner lessons? Windows XP or Vista or other operating system? for now I'm guessing that it's a PC with Win XP or Vista as the operating system- I think I found some good ones for starters- free http://www.jegsworks.com/Lessons/ https://www.videoprofessor.com/index...12ED1D23095427 http://www.americaconnects.net/resou...asp?topicid=27 http://www.techsoup.org/learningcenter/ctc/page4803.cfm If these aren't what you need let me know and I'll find some more for you. Her's the main link showing how I did the search terms to find the sites- http://www.google.com/search?q=+free...&start=10&sa=N Maybe a neighbor or relative? could come over and give you some basic lessons. but most times as long as you don't delete anything or move any files around you can't really hurt it. - if you get stuck anywhere just close it down/push the reset button or turn it off and then restart it. Sometimes my parents will need to restart theirs 2 x then it will start up properly. They have a older computer with Win 98. Sometimes they get stuck and call me so I can talk them thru the problem and most times we can get it figured out. If not then I go down the next day usually and fix it up.

These look like good to start ones. Maybe I'll learn why some of the things I do actually work!
![]() This is what I'd like to see here. With questions and answers in "plain english" for beginners. Thanks so much. Billye |
