The is a computer discovery thread created so that we can all gain the maximum use out of this wonderful modern-day creation we call 'The Computer!' Oftentimes, even as much we're on our PC's daily -- there are tools, software and SOLUTIONS right at our fingertips that can make our lives a heck of a lot easier IF we only knew they were there for us! Also knowing about these things can prevent us from spending unnecessary money on things we already had -- and just didn't know. Name One Thing You Didn't Know About Your Computer -- But Now You Know! Ok I'll start it off... I didn't know that I could find anything within a document by simply going to 'edit' then 'find in this page'. This comes in Super handy when trying to pinpoint hard-to-find HTML codes, words, phrases, characters or anything else within a document. I've made a few other nice discoveries that I'll share as this thread grows if it hasn't been mentioned by another poster. Right now I'll hand over the mike to my next fellow MyLotter... "What's one thing you didn't know about your computer -- but now you Know?!"

You are definitely right there Multimastery, I thought I know computers that much but I did learn so many new things here in myLot. One particular example is the use of the middle/roller button of the mouse, a discussion by LordWarWizard pointed out that we can use it to open a new a link in a new tab. I've been using the mouse roller for so long and I never thought that I could press it to open a link. I have learn so many thinks here this is why my favorite interest is anything related to computer.
