Our computer center has a help desk (physical room or by telephone or
email) and LOTS of free handouts.  So howcome an enterprising student has
been doing a booming business in the library's 24 hour room selling a "How
to use the Internet at UConn" document at $5 a pop?
 
I'm not sure because I haven't read it, but if you go to the Computer
Center and ask they hand you a form and point you toward a wall of
handouts.  I expect there are people willing to pay for the needle without
the haystack (Here's how the form looks all filled out; here's a step by
step example of a login; here's a step by step example of how to get nifty
software from one of the many file transfer (aka ftp) sites listed in the
handy appendix ;-)
