The keyboard will be used to type in programs
where you can type letters, e-mail ect.
4. This is the main program you have on your
computer. Today windows 7 is the newest so
you will want to make sure it has windows 7
or vista. These are the newest an can be
upgraded as the older ones they don’t make
upgrades for as this will be a monthly thing
you will need to do.
5. This is where you turn your computer on at it.
It will depend weather or not you have a
laptop or a desk top. Lap tops are movable to
where u can take easly from place to place.

10. This is what you save your files that you create to.
This can be done either in your computer or a
external hard drive or disk. It is better to save
them to a external one just in case your
computer crashes.
11. This is another kind
This is an example of an called a flash drive
external hard drive that that plugs into your
plugs into you usb port usb port.
12. This is important because. When you delet a
file an send it to the recyling bin an then empty
it it asked you “ are you sure you wnt to
peremilty deleat this files yes or no. you would
think you click yes there gone right? wrong.
Files need to be deleated by somene that knows
wht there doing I say this because it is illagal
for someone to go thought your files while you
own the computer however (next slide)
13. Once you sell or give away your computer
away they are no longer yours an they are legal

15. You will want to get an anti virus program.
There are a lot of them out there. There is trend
micro, avg, and Norton. These will tell you if
you go to open a file if it has a virus or not an
will get rid of it before it attacks your
computer. If you try to run a program it will
automatically shut it down. Norton is the best
there is right now it comes down to you get
what you pay for. Countines on next slide
16. This will also need updated once a week if not
daily. You can set them to update daily an most
wont slow down your computer like Norton, it
will run an you won’t be able to tell its
downloading updates. This will save your
computer as there are new virus made
everyday.
18. Yes if you try to do something bad on the
internet you will get caught. They all have
there own ip address. This is an id tag of your
computer. If you send virus o purpose or try to
hack into someone’s computer an they have a
ip address catcher and they get it there is a
program that you can put it into an it will tell
them your name address what internet
provider you have.

20. Hyper links are links that can be clicked an
takes you to a web page. These are usually in
blue. They can come in an e-mail or if your on a
web site like (staples.com) and you click on
laptop computers it will take you to a page
with just them. This is also a hyper link. They
are basically a short cut to another site.
21. Email is pretty simple. This is how people talk to
each other if they can’t call them. This is almost
like a chat program but you usually don’t get a
respond right away. You can email companies
about products or family that don’t live in the
same state there are a lot of free sites that offer it
free just like the chat windows. Yahoo, aol, hotmail
are just a few of them. You will need to create a
name. then you will need to make a password with
at least 8-10 letters. A good password will contain
letters and numbers. This make it harder for
someone to hack into.
