Planning for using small laptop in the office
1. Issues
* Printing
* Access to files on shared and personal drive
* Saving work back to shared and personal drive
* Which eco system to adopt - also related to phone and how MS documents and spreadsheets are opened
2. Solutions to try
* Printing - Try taking lead from back of PC and put into laptop - it's USB - May need to find software?
* Saving work - Need to do administration religiously. Suggest using email to send required documents to and fro but start from scratch today and build up files as they are used
Maybe save to sd card as well
Also try sharing Onedrives - mine v Gwest
* Which eco system - Dropbox seems to work well but difficult with MS documents. Drive is good but defaults to Google Docs. Icloud seems a bit flaky. One drive works well but need to be able to share properly
UPDATE: 9/5/19
New Lenovo laptop won't work with printer and neither will desktop - To be investigated
