Kathleen... I doubt seriously that you're going to find any "How to Use A Computer" instructions included with you new laptop. I've never seen that happen in over THIRTY YEARS of using a computer! (If people DID get instructions like that, I would be out of a JOB!!) <grin> Too bad you didn't live closer to me. I'd be happy to drop by and tell you ALL about how to have fun using your new computer! (Out of curiosity, is this your FIRST computer?)

The operating system is the same as our other computer it's the hardware I'm not sure how to use mostly. I love that computer manufacturers have packed inside the instructions on opening the box and not how to use your equipment.
