| Five enhancements of Windows 7 |
| Beyond the world of Windows XP, there lies a new age in computers. When the time comes for you to switch to Microsoft’s newest operating system, 7 will be waiting for you with enhancements that will make your transition extremely pleasing. |

| Provisioning your home accounting office |
| More and more accountants are considering striking out on their own. A benefit to providing accounting services is that you can often ease your way into your own business. I'm sure you've read a million articles about how to establish a separate workspace that's all your own and how to organize your files, so instead I'm going to focus on elements of my own home office that I've found particularly effective. |
