Speaking of big sales..

If you're not already on our Software Deals newsletter, now might be the time to join. We have about 45 items we're going to run an "inventory reduction" sale on in that newsletter this Friday.

We have way to much stuff in our warehouse and I need the space for another deal I'm working on. So, we decided to do like the big boys and clear out the extra.

Many of the items in this week's Software Deals are going to be at or below our cost. Some were slow sellers, most we just have way too many of (that's the biggest problem).

If you're on Software Deals, check it out Friday morning. If you aren't on that newsletter (gasp!), you can sign up at this link:

Sorry for all the rambling, on to the newsletter!


Computers 101

Q:
What's the difference between Save and Save As?

A:
I get this one ALL the time, so here you go:

When you use the Save command, you save your work under it's current file name. If you've never saved whatever it is you're working on before, then you'll get an opportunity to name it.

When you use Save As, you get a chance to save what you're working on as a new file.

Here's an example. Let's say you're working on a word processing document. It's a new document and you decide to save it. A box comes up that lets you give it a name. Now, let's say you add something to it. If you use the Save command again, it simply saves it with no questions asked under the existing file name.

OK, now let's say you make a modification to the file, but you want to keep the original version as well. This is where you use Save As. When you use the Save As command, it allows you to save your current file as a new file with a new name. Now when you go to open your files, you'll find you have both the original version and the new, Saved As version.

You didn't know computers could be so much fun, did you??

Amanda's Cool Site of the Day

Game Cabinet

So you buy a brand new board game and play it for several weeks, then like all new things it loses its appeal for awhile. Then suddenly you have a craving to play that board game again, except its been so long you don’t remember the rules and you just happened to lose the itty bitty sheet of paper tucked in the game that had the rules printed on it. Sigh. Whatever will you do?

Well never fear, there is a solution for those of you who lost the rules to that favorite game. It's called the Game Cabinet. Choose from an alphabetical list to find the rules to your game. Just click the name and you are whisked away to the page with the rules on it. Even better, they are all in an easy printable form to make printing out a copy for your board game as simple as hitting ctrl + p. Have fun!
