READER FEEDBACK...

A reader asks...

Q.   "I  understand that AOL is raising its monthly fee effective July, 2001.  I currently pay $9.95  for my AOL each month because I have high speed cable access plus AOL.  Will my AOL monthly rate change?"

A.    You have what AOL calls BYOA... Bring Your Own Access.  This means that you don't use AOL's long distance telephone lines but rather connect to the Internet through your cable access and subsequently connect to AOL through the Internet.  Another example of BYOA is someone who has Earthlink and AOL.

The rate increase will effect ONLY those who are currently paying $21.95 each month.  All other AOL subscription plans will remain at their current rates.

WEEKLY IN DEPTH...

Note: the following computer info will remain here for the entire week.

The History Of Windows

Let's take a tour of the various flavors of Windows.  Which one do you have?

Windows 95 was aimed at the home consumer. It was a replacement for the original Windows 3.1. Windows 95 was available in three versions.
    The original version
    Windows 95 OSR2 (an updated version)
    Windows 95 OSR2 (with USB support)

Windows 98 was a follow up from Windows 95 with various improvements and enhancements. It comes in two versions:
    The original Windows 98
    Windows 98 SE (Second Edition)

Windows ME (millenium Edition) is the latest version of Windows and will be replaced by a brand new version of windows late in 2001

Windows CE (Compact Edition) is the version of Windows that you may find on a palmtop or handheld computer.

Windows NT or ‘New Technology’ is really aimed at the corporate market. (It comes in two versions, Workstation and Server.) For the home consumer It can be complicated to use although there are similarities between Windows NT Workstation and Windows 95/98/ME.

Windows NT Server is the software that large organizations use to run their computer networks.

Windows 2000 comes in various versions and is again aimed at the corporate market but it’s look and feel is the same as Windows ME but with NT technology and features built in. This version is plug and play unlike previous NT software.

Windows XP (previously codenamed Whistler) will replace all versions of Windows and is due to be release on 25th October 2001. It will come in a personal version to use at home and more advanced versions that can be used within the workplace.
