Where is this tab?

[Rosie]

Still trying to figure out my networking problems. Windows Help gives the
following advice re Computer Names. However, this doesn't work for me as the
Computer Name tab isn't there. Where do I find it?
1.. Open Network Connections in Control Panel.
2.. Click the Computer Name tab, and then click change.
3.. In the Computer name box, type a unique computer name, and then click
OK.
4.. Restart your computer when you are prompted to do so.

My help file (Windows XP Professional SP2) has the correct instructions:

1. Open System in Control Panel.
2. On the Computer Name tab, click Change.
3. Under Computer name, type a new name for the computer, and then click OK.

An altogether quicker way is to use WINKEY + BREAK to open
the System Properties dialog.
