Free Computer Help?
Where can one find some free online computer help?
Here's a list of possibilities: http://www.thefreesite.com/Free_Technical_Support/
As always, there's a bit of risk involved. After all, you're asking for advice and then doing it yourself. But, if you feel even a little competent, it might be worth asking for some assistance.
Of course, Google.com or Dogpile.com or other search engines can also be helpful. You can type in "how do I..." and then say whatever it is you're trying to figure out.
"How do I underline something in Word 2007"
"How do I update my Internet Explorer to the latest version?"
Etc.
