Okay, so I am not computer illiterate. I have built my own custom computer and installed all necessary software on it like drivers and such. I know some commands in cmd. I download Torrents by the masses. But I still want to learn about computers a lot.

So what books or other thing can I study to learn all about computers in an easy way, like Telnet, Linux, etc.?

there’s so much about computers, you actually never finish mastering these devils. basically i’m telling you that if that’s all you can do, you’re pretty much PC noob. i have learned about networking, servers, java language and what you said you do etc and i still feel like a noob. i have battled ubuntu trying to understand how it works and searching software alternatives to windows closed source software, you could probably count by the weeks me trying to teach myself.

but it’s fun and exciting because it challenges you and it’s never boring. there’s always something. and the rush is amazing when you fix system that you helped destroy.

i recommend you start with linux mint, which is like linux dumbed down. you can watch some youtube videos to see what it looks like.
or you can go into wikipedia and search for linux distributions (that’s what they’re called, not OS) and do some research.

try out some groups like in google or yahoo, they have projects they go through trying to learn as much as possible about kernels, network, programming, software and hardware.

last option, you can enroll in some prestigious university that offer computer courses.

the choice is yours, and be prepared to sweat.

nah, i’m joking, it’s actually fun.

my laptop (toshiba, satellite 1405) is getting old and the real time clock battery is no longer rechargeable. so everytime I turn on the computer, the system clock is always changed back to 1999. I was wondering if I can change the battery myself, or do I have to take it to a computer store (and how much would that cost)? I heard that the RTC battery is a small button-like battery and is really cheap, but I didn’t see it when I opened the back of the laptop. Any idea? thanks a lot for your help.

That battery looks like a big watch battery and they are pretty cheap. Usually they are located on the mainboard of the computer somewhere. On a laptop that’s likely deep inside it’s belly and hard to get at. You could try to take it apart further, just remember where all the screws go.

Sounds like you might need a new laptop. By brother got one for free from this place. There are a couple to choose from and they aren’t crappy ones. I’m working on getting mine right now. It’s not too difficult. pretty painless really. Just sign up for 1 free trial or something from their list of things and then get a few other people to do the same.

I know of a very conservative traditional catholic school of where computers are not taught. they believe that children should not be on the internet or playing video games because they think they are addictive and not good for the soul. The school believes that kids can learn about computers later in life when they’re 16, 17, or 18 … the more appropriate ages.

what are your thoughts on this?

Yes, it it will definitely set them back. It is essential nowadays that IT skills are learnt at school. Many jobs require at least basic computer skills. In terms of health or spirituality, perhaps it would be better if computers were not used so much – but in this day and age, it is, unfortunately, important to learn about computers, etc.

Press Win key-E and right click on the C drive on the left side of the screen and select Properties. This will show you how much free space you have. You should have at least 20% free space.

Next, right click on the Recycle Bin and select Empty.

Run CCleaner. It’s a small (3 meg) file and will empty temp file folders.
