A site with tutorials for beginners and average PC users
I have completely revamped the sister site Windows for Beginners and added much additional material.
A site on the command line in Windows
Windows may be a graphical user interface but the command line can be a very useful and powerful adjunct. I have created a site where many of the command line tools are discussed. Both the Command Prompt and the Run line are covered. Pages from the present site covering these topics have been updated and moved and new pages have been added.
Windows Vista
This separate site covers what the average PC user needs to know about the new operating system. System requirements, what's new, and tips for its use are among the topics.
A site demystifying the Registry
