Students will need to bring headphones for their listening pleasure. If you use the general access computer labs, you probably use floppy or Zip disks to save and transport your files. Getting into good habits can prevent much pain and misery.
Disks occasionally go bad, making it difficult or impossible to retrieve files.
Disk also get lost. You should always save your important files in at least two different places. Disks occasionally get infected with viruses. If you insert your disk in a lab computer and are informed the disk is infected, pay attention to what Norton Anti-virus tells you it's doing to your disk. Back up important files on the disk immediately.
