It was a brave group that ventured out in a heavy rainstorm on December 14th 2006 to hear Pamela Tabak explain how Windows XP can be configured and easily understood. More members trickled in as the class was in session, after the rain subsided. Pamela was filling in for Jerry Flomen who usually runs this BRCS SIG.

Pamela ran a short PowerPoint presentation showing the computer keyboard and shortcuts that can be utilized to make the members' computing experience easier without using the mouse. Pamela demonstrated and explained in detail, some of the new features of the Windows XP operating system, comparing them with those of previous versions of Windows. Making files and folders, cleaning up the desktop, arranging the start menu, printing problems, inserting a picture into an email, using the Internet and so much more was covered.

After the demonstration Pamela talked about the benefits of belonging to the Boca Raton Computer Society and attending her Novice and Intermediate SIGs on the third Tuesday of every month and the EXCEL SIG before the BRCS General Meeting on the third Wednesday of the month. Pamela also invited the members to take advantage of her FREE 24 hour tech support by E-MAIL  The answer to the members' questions usually arrives within 24 hours.
