To get the best use out of your laptop battery, you need to run it down every now and then. If you only plug in your laptop to a power supply every time, you are not helping your battery. You may actually be causing its failure down the road. So to get the best use of your laptop, run it on battery power to drain the battery.
Another thing, about moving your laptop computer when it is running..."Don't do it." If you have to move your laptop, shut it down; then move it. Moving your laptop while on can damage the hard drive.

Cooling Tray For Laptop
If you have a laptop computer, you need a cooling tray to help keep it running cooler and extend the life of your laptop computer. Heat is a laptop's enemy.
A laptop has a small area to provide cooling for internal electrical components. Overheating can occur easily especially if you block the air intake port.
A cooling tray lifts the laptop up and the fans in the cooling tray push air through the laptop providing extra cooling.
A cooling tray also will angle the laptop for ease of typing.
They are not a lot of money and over time, can extend the life of your original investment.

Computer Training Focus
2008 plans to be a great year. Despite some parts of the economy, you can still have a great year. Opportunity can always be found especially when you have your head up and you are looking for it.
This year the focus of this blog will change to computer training. I am going to start adding computer tips when I can to help you increase your basic computer skills and hopefully help your business at the same time.
Training Tip:
There is a key on your keyboard called the Windows key. You will recognize it because it has a Windows flag printed on it and it is located usually to the left of the space bar. You may also find it on the right side also.
By pressing the Windows key once, the Start menu will apear. This gives you quick access to the Start Menu functions. You can use your mouse from here or use the up and down to select what you want.
If you hold the Windows key down and tap the "E" key, the Windows Explorer will open. The Windows Explorer is also know as My Documents (XP) or Documents (Vista), My Computer and such. This is a handy shortcut for accessing files, folders and such.
