I’ve been quite busy over the Xmas / new year period, so updating this blog has been very patchy.
I’ve also had some requests for new PCs & to upgrade old hardware to “newer” low-cost hardware (ie used PCs).
As part of my company “Marketing” I would place a “Computer Aid” sticker on these PCs (and on any I worked on at home).
I’ve now taken this up a notch & started tinkering with the startup images of XP & win98 & also inserted my web site (http://www.computeraid.net.au) into their web browsers home pages.
I have found the win XP software by stardock (bootskin) an excellent way to replace the windows XP startup logo with my Computer Aid logo. Take a look at: http://www.stardock.com/products/bootskin
Of course the customers are free to change the startup screen to whatever they want afterwards.
