Technology Experience

I am generally fairly comfortable with computers and technology. I have been using the internet to chat and check e-mail since I was about 12 years old, and before that I often played games on the computer. I took a typing class in 8th grade which not only taught me to type well, but also taught me basic skills in Microsoft Word and Excel. I felt confident about using these programs to make projects or write papers. I don't remember where I learned how to create PowerPoint presentations, but I do remember being taught explicitly, and then practicing on my own. I have had several friends who were really techy and good with technology and I learned most of what I know about multimedia and computer hardware from them. I know how to install extra RAM and basis hardware components like external hard drives and wireless adapters. As far as other technology, I have a fundamental knowledge of how speakers, audio/video jacks, cameras, and media players work. I consider myself comfortable with most technology but only proficient with a limited amount.
