Learning the Basics
This chapter covers the basics of using your computer.
Computing tips
Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer’s temporary memory until 
you save it to the disk. You will lose all the work since your 
last save if, for example, the network you are using goes down 
and you must restart your computer to reconnect, or your 
battery runs out of charge while you are working.
HINT: Some programs have an automatic-save feature which 
you can turn on. This feature saves your file to the hard disk 
at preset intervals. See your software documentation for 
details.
Back up your files to disks (or other removable media) on a 
regular basis. Label the backup copies clearly and store them 
in a safe place.
