The HP Palmtop Paper is great! I really look forward to each issue and especially like Palmtop Wisdom, Basic Tips, and Quick Tips.
It does seem, however, that most of your readers have a PC and most of your articles are written assuming that. As a result, the articles don't go into the very basic instructions of exactly how to use the Palmtop. This is especially true in the user profile articles, for example.
I certainly don't expect every article to be basic. That would ruin the magazine for the computer literate. But just one article now and then would help. For example, explain how to use a PC card, how do you back up C drive to A, and how do you recover A drive information you have accidentally deleted from C drive.

[Novices should be sure to read our Best Tips issues that cover fundamentals. For example, in Best Tips 1996, on page 4, you will find Many Ways to Back Up Your files article. See also in Best Tips 1996, p.15, a tip about how to create a batch file for automatic backups.
Some people find that reading a text like DOS for Dummies, available at most computers stores, gives background for running DOS. The HP Palmtop manual will also guide you.
We do appreciate your comments, however, and would like to hear from readers about good topics for Basic Tips and other sections of the magazine -- Carol de Giere.]
