Saving your work
Before you turn off the computer, save your work on the hard
disk drive or diskette/CD. This is one of the most important
rules of computing.
Saving documents is quick and easy, so it is a good idea to get
in the habit of saving frequently.
Many programs offer a feature that saves documents at
regular intervals. Check your program's documentation to see
if it has an automatic save feature.
