A Very Useful Guide to Technology

Given the recent events involving Toby and her computing aptitude, many of us have been left rather confused. Knowing that Santa Royale is technologically ahead by a least 15 years, I've been unable to focus on the plot while trying to make sense of all the things computers can do. I hope this little guide will help everyone who is in the same Bum Boat as me.

Don't forget the compact keyboard on the AdvancedTech Mini to facilitate one handed typing and no inconvenient function keys.
