I told my wife "you cannot hurt this machine." I was talking about our home machine, and she was nervous, because she knows I use that machine for work, and she is a novice. She believes me now, because it is true. My granddaughter plays on the machine, too. She can't hurt it either. I am a small business owner. Although computer-literate, things kept happening which were beyond my knowledge, and which caused great loss of time and money. Since the computer is absolutely critical to my business, I had to find a way to keep my computers working perfectly on my own. There is such a way. If you are a small business owner, this book will describe a real-world method for keeping your computer working absolutely perfectly, despite viruses, worms, spyware, "little hands" playing on the machine, programs that simply stop working for no reason, and so on. It works. It is not a piece of cleanup, antivirus, or firewall software. It is a Process, and it works. If you are willing to invest a modicum of time and money, this process will keep your machine working flawlessly quite literally until the hardware fails.

Remarks by way of a review of Mr. Edgar Morrisons book Early Days in the Loddon Valley; Concerned mainly with the work of E.S. Parker, Protector of the Aborigines.

If only a few things had gone differently, today's car companies in America would be called the big four: General Motors, Chrysler, Ford and Studebaker-Packard. This historical novel shows how one brilliant German automotive engineer who got his start working on Germany's "peoples car" changed the course of American automotive history. Late in World War II, when Allied bombers almost destroyed the Volkswagen plant, Hans Werner left and joined his college roommate who was one of Dr. Werner Von Braun's rocket scientists and traveled to America with the group. Hans escaped his work site at White Sands, New Mexico, and moved across country, eventually landing a job at Studebaker in South Bend, Indiana. By helping Studebaker develop America's first practical four-passenger compact car and promoting extensive sharing of components between models, the company prospered and grew. In a power struggle with the local union, Hans was framed for the murder of his boss, the vice-president of Engineering. He eventually was cleared and got back to work on his compact car. The invasion of the VW Beetle never happened since Studebaker, with its superior design, was at the right place at the right time with its small car. Reading this book will convince you that it really could have and should have happened.
