Make Your Computer More Friendly


Do you often feel that you are involved in hand-to-hand combat with your computer? Did you think computers where designed to serve mankind, not fight back every time you want it to do something? This ebook shows you how to configure Windows so that your work will be much easier and faster.

There has been no SIGNIFICANT technological advance in Windows since Windows 95 (and I could make a case that there has been no significant technological advance in Windows since Windows 3.0). But in order to trick people into paying for "upgrades" Microsoft has made cosmetic changes and added trivial features that add to Windows bloat and waste memory and processing time.

The problem is that Windows default installation is configured to show off all the trivial bells and whistles that Microsoft's bored programmers have put in the software, while at the same time hiding some important information from you because they think you're too stupid to see it. If you are not an experienced user, or if you've just become accustomed to Microsoft's default configuration, you are working with an operating system configured for low productivity.

Fortunately you still have the ability to configure Windows to the way it was before most of the trivial features, excessive complexity and productivity tapping bloat was added. Once you do that, your work will be much easier and faster.
