“I was a
complete computer illiterate and Kate, my ‘Computer Guru’, got me on track in no
time. I recommend no one else!”
-Bobbie Carll, Bobbie Carll Realty
I have worked
with micro computers since May of 1980. I suffered through the dark ages before
DOS, before CP/M even, when 64k of RAM was a lot! My first word processor was
called “The Electric Pencil” … I may not know
your particular software package, but I’m good at figuring things out. And if I
don’t know something, I might know someone who does!
Call Kate Keilman at (808) 224-1186 for an

Fee
Schedule: $60/hour in quarter hour increments –
that is, if I’m only with you for half an hour, I only charge $30 (the minimum),
but if I can’t help you in 20 minutes, I DON’T CHARGE!
No travel charges, but if beyond
Kaneohe or Pearl City, two hour minimum. (I'm based out of East Honolulu
currently). DISCOUNTS MAY APPLY, just ask.
Bare Bones Basics - I work well with beginners – how to turn on the
computer, how to move that pesky mouse, what a computer can and cannot do, and
how to turn it off!
Word Processing - Need to write a letter or create a resume’? Writing the Great American Novel? How about a cute party invitation? I know WORD and Word Perfect, plus a variety of other lesser known word processors.
Data Bases - From MS Works, through Office (Access) with WORD and Word Perfect in between, I can help design and show you how to get the data into a data base, and then how to get it back OUT in a variety of formats.
Mail Merges - Want to send that party invitation to your Christmas card list? We can print labels or perhaps print right onto your envelopes! Personalized business letters too.
Email - If you don’t already have access to the internet (you need an account with Someone, Somewhere) I can explain your options, and get you set up with your own account. I’ll cover sending, receiving, and those tricky “Attachments” plus get your Address book set up with all your needed email addresses. Need to create rules to sort certain emails into specific folders? I can show you how.
Surfing the Internet - I can show you how to search the web, find long lost friends, buy or sell things, look up stock prices, research plane tickets, go to a specific website, create bookmarks (aka “favorites”), all kinds of things!
Desk Top Publishing - Need to create a flyer, brochure, display ad or newsletter? I’m not a graphic designer, but we can do a lot with text, clipart and fancy borders!
Making Back ups - If what you have in your computer is important to you, it’s essential to make backup copies. I can do them for you, or show you the easiest, safest way to store your valuables.
Spring Cleaning -
Want to get rid of unneeded
files or programs? Got too many icons on your desktop, need help organizing? I
have a variety of tricks up my sleeve
Digital Cameras - Did you get a digital camera for Christmas and still
haven't sent/printed any photos yet?
… And More!

NOW CERTIFIED!! I can help with all kinds of problems:
Computer running slowly? Might be too many programs at one time, not
enough memory, improper use of firewalls, I can take a look and figure out the
best solution. You might not need a new computer!
Hard disk crash? Not sure what the problem is, but it won't turn on?
Could be an easy fix, might be bad news. If I can't fix it, I might know someone
who can. I probably can get the data off the computer and onto a new one...
Weird problems? Did the gremlins get in and reset things overnight? I
make a good detective!
My Background: I started as a mainframe computer programmer in 1977, got my first micro computer in May of 1980, and have worked on all kinds of computers and operating systems. I'm very good at figuring things out, manuals don't scare me, and I can communicate very well, something many nerds can't do! I love to teach, and many times people have said "OH! You make it so simple and easy to understand!". Give me two hours and I can simplify your life.
