[CSC 125] Project 1

[Andrew J. Pounds]

Okay -- so in addition to the 16 /MyITlab/ Assignments and /BlackBoard/ 
Assignments, there are 4 projects.  The projects are either applications 
of the /Office 2007/ exercises that I personally developed, or they are 
exercises that are in accordance with a class called Intro to 
Computing.   Project 1 is definitely in this second category.  The 
complete description can be found in /BlackBoard/, but basically it is 
going to force you to learn something about your computer's hardware.

Now -- some of you have no idea what I am talking about.  For that 
reason I have placed some /PowerPoint/ and video content in /MyITLab/ 
related to "Computing Concepts".  Chapter  2 of this content is a 
"virtual tour" of your computer and should help get you started.  As you 
are answering the questions posed in the Project 1 document, feel free 
to contact me for help or clarification.

This isn't due until January 12th -- but many of you will probably want 
to get started on it and knock it out this week.
