I would like to expand on what Don has said. As the computer educator here at the museum, it is also my responsibility for training new employees on the IBM systems. I have a small four hour program which goes over the basics about taking care of disks, don't touch the disk drive while the red light is on, etc. A little time spent in training goes a long way in keeping me from having to go to the offices to 'fix' things. Since we implemented the training sessions, our users make fewer 'dumb' mistakes like taking the disk out when the light on the drive is on, and being sure to backup the hard disk every day. It only took one of our users accidently deleting a file and not backing up the hard disk each day to drive that point home. Richard Shores Cumberland Science Museum
