on 8/2/2008 I read all the titles in this series and thought .... I know all this stuff. I decided to view the fist video clip on Hot Keys and I continued until I had viewed all 19 clips. Great presentation, slow easy to understand and remember. A great refresher series. Props to the presenter and thank you for reactivating things I had forgotten. A very well spent 45 minutes.
