I've worked at a small MSP for over a decade and have been kicking around the LA hacker scene for like 20 years. The linked articles are based in my accumulated knowledge from time cheerfully mis-spent.
About Computers
- How does a Computer Work?
- Why does my computer slow down over time?
- How can I get better at using computers?
For the purposes of this site, when I am talking about computers I am nearly always discussing Windows computers in the "standard office desktop/laptop" configuration; these are the kinds of computers that I am most familiar with. I cannot help you with two-in-ones, all-in-ones, gaming computers, tablets, etc. These are the computers that I can discuss with the most nuance and that I can be most helpful with. However, I know there will be further questions so for more info please see:
