For managing these files, Microsoft Photo Editor is a big help, and it's pre-installed on most Windows PCs. Macintosh users, try iPhoto, which is free for anyone using OS X. If you don't have either one, pick up Adobe's Photoshop Elements ($99) or any other inexpensive photo program...

But remember, we're talking about kinder, gentler Microsofties, at least compared with the pre-antitrust trial version. Then they were viciously monopolistic.
