Welcome !
Thank you for choosing the RiscStation R7500. This Welcome Guide is intended to be of
most use to those who are using a RISC OS computer for the first time. Much of the advice
given in this document will apply to other RISC OS computers but it has been written with
the RiscStation R7500Lite specifically in mind. If you are already familiar with RISC OS,
then you might also like to read on if only to refresh your memory of the basics. Users of
previous versions of RISC OS might just wish to familiarise themselves with those features
new in RISC OS 4, see Appendix A.
