Posted By Marc on March 25, 2007 @ 12:02 am

With the number of questions I get from people regarding what they need to do when they get a new laptop, I have decided to create this multi-part section detailing everything you need to know about your new laptop.  The parts will be organized as follows:

  1. First things first- The single most important thing to do BEFORE you hook up to the Internet
  2. Protect your computer - Anti-virus, firewall, anti-spyware and more
  3. Productivity software - word processing, spreadsheets and more

So, check out these topics to learn what you should do, how you can get quality software for no cash investment, and how to protect your new laptop.
