Computer Skills

I own three computers; a Dell Inspiron that runs Windows XP, a Mac Powerbook G4 that runs OS X Leopard, and a Dell that runs Linux. I am familiar with enough computer programs that even if I have never used a particular program I am able to navigate my way around and learn how to use the new software relativly quickly. At my most recent employer I used Excel, Collect One, MAS and a web based interface called PAIS to access information in the company wide database. I have taken classes and consider myself proficient in the following programs; Access, Excel, Flash, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator, HTML, Java Script, CSS. I am familiar with many different email clients web based, SMPT, IMAP, IMAP4 and POP3. I also have a lot of experience searching databases like Lexus Nexus or Dunns & Bradstreet for example.
