Software |
||
|
Computer Services has instituted a software purchasing program. The goal of this program is to purchase large quantities of software, which will allow for a better price to the end user. Currently we have the following software available through this p
rogram: Microsoft Office 97 Suite, Corel Suite 7 and Windows 95. Microsoft Office Suite 97 and Corel Suite 97 require Windows 95. Users of Windows 3.1 or 3.11 will need to purchase a Windows 95 upgrade. Call 3261 for more details on pricing and availabili
ty. Let us know if there are other software packages of interest to you. |

Virus Protection |
|
|
Current campus-wide virus protection does not cover Mac or apple machines. If
you own a Macintosh you can go to McAfee to find virus
protection software. Computer Services has no current plans for purchasing an
anti-virus software license for Macintosh. If you wish to purchase the software
you must
do so by
user or by department. Computer Services promotes the use of F-Prot virus protection software for IBM and compatibles. This software is available on the
campus software download site and is updated on a regular basis. |

The listing is located off the WVSU
home page, select the class availab
ility link. The address for the page is http://www.wvstateu.edu/compsrvs/enroll.htm.
This resource is intended to help students and advisors plan for the coming semester. The page is updated on a regular b
asis so that the information is current enough to be useful to students as they plan their schedule. It can be especially beneficial to students as they prepare to register via the phone. |

staff and faculty use. These videos cover topics such as
Windows 3.1, Windows 95, HTML, The Internet, And Office 97. Videos are
available for beginners, intermediate, and advanced users. Videos will be shown in some of the Friday workshops and are available for staff and faculty use in our resource lab, located in Hamblin Hall room 120. This lab has a tv - vcr combo and a computer
which allows you to work along with the video. In order to allow as many people as possible to use the video tutorials, they are available only for use in the resource lab. Licensing prohibits us from making copies. A digital Camera is available for indi
