Can your Computer Handle Word 2007?
You might be tempted to download the free trial version of Word 2007
(or a newer version) and give it a spin. Unless your computer and current
operating system can handle it, it might be more frustrating than fun.
I have an old laptop at
home. In its day (it is about 6 years old) it was a considered top of the line.
Both my computer at home and at work run Windows XP. Since I have removed
many of the programs, and most of the documents that were once on the laptop, I
decided to try the Trial version at home.
I loved the Word 2007 at
work, and was amazed at how much better it was than my old Word. So naturally, I
wanted the same for home. Unfortunately, it was just too much for my
laptop to handle. I can do work processing (I am using it now), yet once I
try to insert a picture, the computer crashes.
Internet Connection
You don’t have to be
online to begin digital scrapbooking. Yet, if you can go online, it is so much
better! With the Internet, you have a world of clip art to embellish your
digital scrapbook pages. I will expand on this in a future article.
