[1] THIS WEEK'S MONEY SAVER: Upgrade Your
CD-ROM?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Do You Really Need to Upgrade Your CD-ROM?
Are you considering an upgrade for your CD-ROM drive?
If your PC sports a 6X, 8X, or 10X CD-ROM drive, you
may be thinking of upgrading to a faster one. But think
twice. All CD-ROM titles are still optimized for playback
on about a 4X CD-ROM drive. This means you'll notice
no improvement in audio, video, or animation when you
play back on a faster drive.
The only time CD-ROM drive speed makes a difference
is when you install software or copy files from a CD to
your hard drive. In those cases, the CD-ROM drive
transfers data as fast as it can.
The real reason to buy a new drive is to add functionality.
For example, you might purchase a CD-R recording drive
or a DVD drive. In terms of performance alone, odds are
your current CD-ROM drive is fast enough.

[2] THIS WEEK'S COMPUTING TIP: Fast File
Renaming

Renaming Files Fast
If you're using the Active Desktop's single-click mode,
you can right-click an item and select Rename from the
context menu. You can also select the item by hovering
over it and pressing [F2]. Or you can select the item, pull
down the File menu, and select the Rename command.
