Who doesn't love computer tips? These are the quick productivity tips hidden on page 168 of the PDF manual you never downloaded. Yes, I still long for paper software manuals.

We have three tip types. The first set is the general set. Although they require maybe 5 minutes on your part, they took us more time to write.

The second set of tips is chunkers. These are articles that require more time than 5 minutes to complete. They are more like projects. The project can be chunked into smaller tasks that can be completed in less time.

And if you're just looking for the occasional tip, don't forget the Random Tip. We have tips there that range from trivia to favorite tips supplied from company executives. The random tip appears on the Home page on the left side.
