Saturday October 12th at 10:00am –“Answers to Computer Questions You Are Too Embarrassed to Ask”*
There are so many basic questions about computers that people do not know the answers to, but think that everyone else does! If any of the following questions are in that category for you, this may be just the right class to feel a little less perplexed.
· When do I right click with my mouse?
· What is a Browser?
· What is the difference between RAM and a Hard Drive?
· What is the Escape Key on the keyboard used for?
· What is The Cloud?
· What are Megabytes vs. Gigabytes vs. Terabytes?
· What is a Chromebook?
· What are the signs of a fraudulent email?
· Many others … and bring some of your own!
*This project is made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered by the Connecticut State Library.
