You’re in for a fun time regardless of your skill level. Just bring your curiosity! P.S. Subscribe so you don't miss new episodes! P.P.S. Have a question? Hit me up. admin [at] thecomputerclan [dot] com—no tech support questions please. P.P.P.S. Charity is important to me, so for every 1 million views I receive, I will donate a Chromebook* to someone in need via Human-I-T. (*Donation will be cash in the amount of $256 based on Human-I-T's recommendations.)
