Using Your TV as a Computer Monitor
I have an Acer Aspire 4315-2490 laptop with an LCD screen which is faulty. I was wondering if I can get some sort of cable or wire or something to plug it into my TV and use the TV as a monitor instead of my faulty screen.

The picture on our laptop is too large to fit the screen. How can I make it smaller? I am not very computer savvy. Thanks.

Organizing Extension Cords and Other Wires
I bought a 50 cent tin to match the decor of the room and cut a square hole in the back. We pushed all the phone cord and extra computer line through, hooked it all up, put the lid on the tin and now all the mess is "contained".

Organizing Computer Cords
My computer went down, and my friend came over (he's a computer engineer) and fixed it. When the time came to put it back and boot it up, I took masking tape and marked each cord that went into the tower.

Use Old Dresser as a Computer Desk
I decided to decorate the spare bedroom in a "country" theme, but it still needs to house the family computer. I bought an old dresser with one long drawer in the center, and 3 drawers on each side, with the center open for a chair.

Set Timer to Limit Computer Time
I found once I got my own computer just how easy it was to waste an entire day on my computer and not get anything else done. Now I set the kitchen timer for how ever long I want to spend time on my computer and when it goes off, I get up and leave to do other things.

Tips for Using an iMac
I just received an iMac as a gift and I am a little lost. I'd prefer not to have to buy Microsoft Office and Adobe to put on this new computer, but I don't know if I can do what I want to without them. I have been using Thinkfree Office for Write, and Show but miss MS publisher.
