dude, you have just made my life so much easier.

I am pulling my team together right now and going to have a meeting similar to this next Tuesday. Thanks for documenting where I'm going! :)

The PC tuneup idea is a great way to serve your church and community. We are doing this every couple of months and I think we are really hitting our stride now. I've got a good core group of techies and people are starting to understand that we are there to serve them.

I'm considering doing some sort of training after the first of the year, although I really don't have a classroom/PC lab to do this in, so that's my challenge. Like you say, there is a huge need for MS Office training, basic PC skills, even digital photo management...storing, organizing, manipulating etc. After Christmas, many people will have a new PC that they won't know what to do with.

People really appreciate learning more about how to use their computer. The PC Workshops that I do end up being as much about teaching people how to maintain their PC and teaching them anything else they want to know as it is about cleaning up spyware or upgrading memory.

I have documented some guidelines and I tend to fine tune things each time we do it.

Anyway, I will use your pdf form as a guide for what I'm going to do, I will be doing probably 3/4 of what you have on there.

Thanks!

Glad to help out Jim ... and look forward to hearing about your experiences afterwards :-)

As always you're making life easier. As I'm always trying to find ways for people to get involved and serving this is a great list to match up with things we have or need help with as well as the things we would like to have. The last part is key in that it'll make it much easier to implement new hardware/software/processes if we have people that already know what they're doing versus me trying to learn it as we go along.
