Who Knew Your...PC, Software, Camera, Printer, Network, Drive, Handheld...Could Do That?
28 unexpected ways to get more out of the tools you use every day.
Steve Bass
My wife, Judy, thinks I'm crazy. (I prefer "nonconformist," thank you very much.) And why? Just because I take pleasure in discovering new and unexpected ways to use my favorite hardware and software. Exhibit A: I recently spent a week holed up in my home office poking around my PC. Let me tell you, I found some things I never expected.
Like, for instance, an easy way to strip out the information hidden in Office documents, a neat trick for speeding up the Internet, and a simple Windows tweak that boosts the performance of my hard drive. I also transformed my notebook into a desktop PC, established a wireless connection for my printer, and loaded images directly from my digital camera into a slide-show display that hangs on my living-room wall. I also unearthed a bunch of low-cost gizmos and free software that can help your current setup do more than you ever thought it could. I bet you're going to be more than a little surprised at these fab tricks, tweaks, and tips.
