Security+ class.  I could not believe how much I did not
know!!!   I also took a hardware (A+) course at the same
time.  Same thing -- I had absolutely no idea what a the
parts of the computer were, much less looked like.  I
remember that I thought the Hard Drive was the big box that
sat on my desk ---- obviously I was wrong!!!!

class.  Frequent stops at Ebay and bestbookbuys.com (which
has low priced computer books) increased my library
immensely.  Now, I curl up in bed or curl up in front of the
fireplace with a computer book and not a Ladies Home
Journal!!

when I started taking basic Security and A+ Courses at the

Word and Excel ..... little did I know just how stupid I was

I was "Stuck on Stupid."  But the computer
