Question from Tammy:  I’ve used nothing but Windows laptops all my life but I decided to try a MacBook Air this time around.

I think I’m going to like the laptop ok but I hate the Apple Magic Mouse that I bought to go with it. I just can’t seem to get used to it. I guess I’m weird but it just doesn’t feel right in my hand.

My question is can I use a regular 2-button mouse like the ones you use with a Windows computer with it?

Question from Carl:  I read here that you can “span” (i.e. combine) multiple hard drives and use them as one large drive and access them all with a single drive letter.

I have a used, but working 1TB hard drive at home that I could install in my Windows 11 desktop computer to span with the 1TB drive that’s already in it to effectively give me a 2TB drive. (There is an open drive bay to install the second drive.)

Question from Alex:  This is probably a dumb question but I’ll ask it anyway.

Will my friends (and their friends) still be able to see a photo that I deleted after they have shared it?

I posted a picture a few days ago that I really shouldn’t have posted and it was shared like crazy by my friends. I deleted it this morning, but will they still be able to see it?  [Read more…]
