Maybe have a little drawing illustrating how geeky the how-to is. A meter that has a pic of Mr. T representing a novice geek all the way to a pic of Data from Star Trek illustrating the super high geek is the first thing that comes to mind.

I would suggest having a special “Warning: Advanced Tips!” alert on the How-To, but I don’t think you need an entirely new section… sounds like an organizational headache.

Nice and helpful site Geek

Like Mark said I think you should categorize by OS then by subject
for example XP : Desktop environment
It would maybe be difficult to sort all your how-tos so you should, whatever option you choose keep the
entire list of them somewhere in your site

keep helping us geek more

NB…Following on from my last comment, perhaps rather than categorize by level, it would be appropriate to catergorize by area – like you’ve done with Win XP, Office, etc, but with a wider range of categories?

PS Love the site btw, think it’s genius!!

I think the bottom line is…”What does the word advanced mean?” Trying to categorize this sort of thing by a level would be nigh on impossible I think. ‘Advanced’ for an IT expert might be something really complex in DNS or Group Policy or some SQL code, etc…but something ‘Advanced’ for my mum would be how to go to YouTube!!!!!

Yes, I believe you should leave ADVANCED HOW TO’S. For example how to set up SATA AND RAID DRIVES and using the F6 key when installing Windows to install the drivers for SATA DRIVES.

I just built a computer a few months ago and an article like this would have been great to have. I did fir a few articles, but I didn’t find then very useful. A separate feed is a good idea because a computer is never a project, it’s always a work in progress. Also as Brigitte said dates are important because products are changing as well.

First time I visit your site. Well done, indeed. But I’m sure your proposition would be appreciated.
An easy way to directly get beginners or more advanced users feeds for the same discussion.
In addition, site would be more furnished and attractive.

I don’t think it needs to be separated – what I would appreciate is if your “how-tos” would have a date listed so I can see what I have already read through!!!
Your site is THE most super and well-written site EVER! I have learned everything I know about VISTA from your site. Keep up the excellent work! YOU ARE A GEM!
I have one super Vista-machine running now – thanks to you!
