KEGS
Self Help Support
Need help but don't know where to go.
Following is a list of web sites that might give you the information that you need.
The original of the list below came from a computer magazine (Computer Shopper) but we add to it when we find something new. If you have a information or support site that you have found useful, please send an email to our web administrator at webmaster@kegs.org, give us your favorite web site, tell us which category it fits in, and we will add it to this list. If you're a KEGS member you even get KEGABUCK$ for every link we add.
But this isn't all! There's more! (I feel like I'm selling knives on an infomercial.)
A KEGS member, Gordon Young, has graciously given us a list of all his favorite utilities. Just click here to jump right to his special list of goodies
