Welcome to the Disk Backup & Online Files course!  Your instructor also broadcasts this course live online from the classroom (see below), and will later put recordings of the lectures on the course web page.

  • Cell phone ringer off:  In the classroom, please silence your cell phone or pocket computer so it doesn't ring, or turn it off.  Thanks!
  • Using Internet Explorer here? Fix Tabs Now!
    Most of the links in this course's web pages open a separate window, which you can close afterwards and return to the previous page.  Other web browsers, such as Firefox, Google Chrome, and Opera, conveniently open the links in new tabs, but Internet Explorer doesn't.  By default, I.E. opens each link in a whole new window, cluttering your desktop. So, please make Internet Explorer open the links in new tabs like other browsers by using these instructions from Itechtalk.
