Introduction to Windows 7

Windows 7 has turned out to be Microsoft's best workstation computer operating system -- certainly better than Vista, and even better than Windows XP, which was itself very good. If you're interested in switching to Windows 7, or if you've only used it a bit, then this two-session class will teach you what you need to know to use Windows 7's features comfortably. We'll talk about Windows 7 versions, the Start Menu, the Control Panel, Libraries, Homegroups, Gadgets, User Account Controls, Jump Lists, Aero Peek & Snap, and other features as time allows. Prerequisite: Students should already have experience with the basics of using a computer -- using the keyboard & mouse, clicking and double-clicking, and opening and closing programs & windows. Pre-registration is required.
