Disk
Files
|
|
|
|
o |
Only
use the “save” command if it’s a new file name, or if you know
|
|
|
you
want to replace the old file.
Otherwise use “save as”.
|
|
|
|
o |
Try
to only put items in the recycle bin if you think you want to get
|
|
|
rid
of them. Only empty the recycle bin
if you are sure you want to
|
|
|
get
rid of them.
|
|
|
|
o |
If
it’s your own computer, make backup copies of files in case the
|
|
|
disk
crashes (i.e. fails horribly).
Dante files are backed up for you
|
|
|
automatically.

|
o |
Practice
safe computing. For now, just use
the software already
|
|
|
installed
on the Collab computers, use pine for e-mail, and you’ll be
|
|
fine. Later we’ll talk about viruses, how to
protect yourself against
|
|
|
them,
and how to write your own and annoy your friends.

|
|
o |
If
it’s your own machine, shut it down by picking the shutdown item
|
|
|
on
the menu – don’t just turn it off or pull the plug.
