There are so many ways that I use my Microsoft products. In a recent article written by The Oregonian I talked about my use of Excel and how it can help with budgeting for your family this year. But there are so many other ways that you can also use your various Microsoft products.
Start Your 2012 Revival!
· Out with the Old, In with the New (In Store): Already have your new PC and need to get rid of your old one?

Even better, if we determine your computer still has value, we’ll give you a Microsoft store gift card for that amount.
