How do I make sense of all the jargon?

As a layperson, it is difficult to keep up with computer jargon. But generally you will only need to know what affects you, and here you will find that working with the technology will familiarise you quite quickly.

There are also plenty of ‘jargon-busting' lists of computer-related definitions available to the public - see www.helpwithpcs.com/jargon/jargonmenu.htm as an example.
