"And Speaking of Poking Around...
OK, by now you know I'm a firm believer in poking around your system. It's really the only way to really know what's there. Even today, from time to time, I'll still uncover some nifty little doo-dad, gizmo, tweak or improvement that I hadn't seen or noticed before.
Quick Windows example: Use Explorer to look inside your \WINDOWS directory, and use FIND to select all the .TXT files there. Chances are, you'll find a couple dozen files there--- a FAQ on setting up Windows, a whole explanation of the CONFIG.SYS file, system recovery information, troubleshooting tips, general tips, and lots more. Poke around--- you may be surprised at what you can find!"
note: i especially liked the "tips" file and the "FAQ" file!
