Mapes was invited to lead a roundtable discussion on the topic \u201cAre You Computer Savvy?\u201d  \u201cMany people think \u2018computer savvy\u2019 means having an IT job or an engineering degree,\u201d Mapes said. \u201cBut anyone can become computer savvy by following a few simple tips.\u201d Bev\u2019s pointers include:  Reboot, reboot, reboot! If you have a Windows machine, rebooting will fix the vast majority of computer problems\u2014and save you an expensive repair bill. Be productive: if you set out to do a task on the Internet, write it down. It is very easy to get distracted. If you find another interesting site, bookmark it for later, but finish your original task before exploring something new. Divert the flood: remove yourself immediately from email lists you do not wish to be on. Spam emails can begin as soon as you hand out business cards at an event, so be diligent! \u201cIt was an honor to be a facilitator for GROW, an organization that helped me so much when I was first launching Top of the List,\u201d Mapes said. GROW is a non-profit economic development corporation that provides education, connections, and resources to help create and strengthen women\u2019s small businesses. Its services help women break through social, educational, and economic barriers to be successful business owners.  This Lunch with Punch event was no exception.
