114 Getting to Know Windows XP Lesson 2: Using the TouchPad pointing device folders reside in your computer on a storage device, such as a disk drive. You can think of your computer storage system in terms of office equipment. You have a file cabinet (device), that contains folders, and each folder may contain documents. Your office may have more than one file cabinet, just as your computer may have more than one disk drive. Computers can be connected together to form a network, so that programs, documents and other data can be quickly and easily shared between computers. You can use the My Computer feature on the desktop to access any file in the Windows file system. For more information, read the Microsoft documentation that comes with your computer. Lesson 2: Using the TouchPad pointing device "Getting Started" introduced you to the TouchPad, which is your basic tool for moving around the screen and performing computing tasks. This lesson lets you practice using the TouchPad. 1 Move the cursor to the Start button, then click the primary button to open the Start menu.
