Supplies You Need to Craft by Computer

Anyone at all familiar with computers knows that things change at the speed of light. Software programs are either upgraded of
disappear, and the hardware changes constantly.

In Computer Setup, I discussed the need to keep your computer and programs up to date, since programs, especially those dealing with graphics require a lot of computing power.

Here is a list of some of the best buys on the net. As you may guess, it will be updated regularly.

To refresh your memory, in the Computer Crafting section, we’ve talked about the following resources and craft supplies:

Kingston makes excellent inexpensive chips for all computers.

Because of the many types of memory available, consult your computer manufacturer's website or the website of chip retailers. They usually have all the information you need to make the right choice.

Upgrade your operating system to Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Upgrade.
