Ways to improve your comp's performance

"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Defrag your hard drive at least once a month.

Run Adaware, or other similar software on a regular basis.

Don't spill beer on the keyboard of your laptop ( didn't do my one much good :cry: )
