HP LAPTOP BATTERY RECALL

Welcome!

Welcome to the first issue of this newsletter. If you're on my  mailing list it means that you've had some technology, most likely a computer, serviced  by me, Ish Alter and/or MisterComputer.com

Mr. Computer not only fixes computers, sets up networks, connects you to the internet and removes viruses, but we also connect and integrate audio/video equipment like that new Flatscreen TV.  We also do training.

I hope you will find the articles and tips in the newsletter informative.  Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to your friends and family. Got a technology question you'd like answered? E-mail me and it might be  in a future issue! 
 
              Do You Know the Difference ?
AV 2009 Logo

Anti-Virus 2009? Spyware Guard?

AV 2009 LogoDon't give these people your money. These guys are  the originators of "the drive by" SPYWARE infection. You inadvertantly land on a  poisoned website, often without knowing it and as you "drive by" you're infected. If you can't get these guys out of your computer, we can; Often remotely, and at a time most convenient for you!
 
Free Anti-Virus

AVG Logo AVG, release 8.5, is still free, to home users. You get the same Anti-virus and Anti-Spyware protection as its paid version. More importantly, it has a smaller footprint so it works without slowing your computer down. Check Quick Link to the left    for AVG and other free Anti-virus products.
Missed the NCIS Season Finale?
Watch it Now!
TVDid you miss the finale of NCIS? Numb3rs? Any prime time show on CBS? You can watch them on your computer and even on your home TV. Go to CBS.com and follow the links to watch any and all episodes of your favorite series.

If you can get an internet connected computer, perhaps a laptop with a wireless connection, close enough to the TV then with the help of  one readily available VGA cable and a dual male audio cable, you can watch that finale right on you Flat Screen TV in full screen. Most of the
new flat screens have a VGA input.

The shows at CBS are near commercial free, they are flash player driven so you already have all the software you need and there's no perceptible delay in transmission. Similar viewing is available from NBC and ABC but I find CBS to have the simplest interface and the most robust selection.
