LeeTutor's Doing Windows
About LeeTutor
Hi, my name is Lee Reynolds. I first joined the Boca Raton Computer Society (which was then called the Pc Users Group of Boca Raton) back in February of 1987. I started writing a column of reviews of freeware and shareware programs I'd downloaded from the club's bulletin board in September of 1987. The column was called Nibbling at Boca Bytes. In November of 1998 the BBS went out of existence, I started doing my downloads from the internet, and the column was renamed Nibbling at the Net. I started a second column -- tips, tricks and tutorials concerning Windows 95 -- in February of 1996. It was called Doing Windows (95). Later, I included material about Windows 98, so the name was changed to Doing Windows (9x). When I began including Windows Millenium Edition, it was shortened to Doing Windows. In September of 2002, I started a new column called Fixing Windows. In December of 2002 I bought Windows XP and added it to my multibooting system, and started writing articles for a new column called r u XPerienced? Then in January of 2007 I bought a new computer with Windows Vista Ultimate edition on it, and started the Hasta la Vista! column.
I've been a programmer since 1966, when the mainframes
were IBM 7094 and Univac 1108. About a dozen different
languages, including several assembler. My first personal
computer was an Apple II, and I became expert enough at
it to have a couple of dozen articles published in
nationally distributed magazines like Micro
and Call -A.P.P.L.E. Then I got
my first IBM compatible, an old AT, before the days of
Windows 3.1. Several pcs later, I now have Windows XP,
Windows ME and Windows 98SE multibooting off a Dell
Pentium III. I have several part-time jobs, including the
tutoring of people on computers and chess (hence my
"handle") as well as helping them fix or set up
their machines.
In 2007 and 2008 I was nominated for and accepted as a Microsoft MVP (Most Valuable Professional).
