What I have learned in Chapter 1.

I have learned several things so far. I had no idea that there was a snipping tool available on these newer computers. It is handy, however I don't think I would use it much. I already knew how to Print Screen from playing online games. We usually just call them screen shots. It is nice to be able to brush up on all the changes that has been going on since my last real computer class.
