The animated GIF is one of the Internet’s oldest technologies, and it’s getting a resurgence with memes on various social media sites and collection/search sites like GIPHY and Gfycat (with GIPHY being used for the GIF search in Microsoft Teams).

It’s basic functionality, but it’s there, and here's how to do it. |

We are firm believers that a properly-configured computer with a factory warranty should last you at minimum three years, usually longer (which is why most of the computers we sell come with at least a four-year warranty). But sometimes a computer is on the verge of death. How can you tell when your computer needs to be replaced? |
 We think keyboard shortcuts are great. Anything to keep you from having to take your hands off your keyboard keeps you more productive.

Is That Port USB-C or Thunderbolt?
We’ve covered this before, but it bears repeating (since we’ve had a few folks ask about it recently): USB-C is just a new USB port type, but it’s capable of doing Thunderbolt over that same connection. So how do you know what the port is capable of? Check the labels near the port, which should tell you what it’s capable of. |
