XP SPEEDS THINGS UP

From Candy:

‘Ken, if anyone is using windows ME or 98 and have printers and scanners that are compatible (almost must be USB) with XP, loading that also increases speed considerably. I was so surprised when I loaded it and saw the difference. I used home edition update and am very happy with the results.'

TAXES USING IRS WEB SITE

Each year I open the Wisconsin and Federal tax forms on their web sites and use the fill-in forms. They are in PDF format and you just tab from one item to the next and fill in the form. When complete, I print them out and send them in.
