Summary: It is definitely complete!
Comment: Although this book is old, DOS hasn't changed much and almost everything in here still works. As big as it is you don't have to read every little thing to at last know what to do at the MS-Dos/command prompt on your computer. You're taught the basics and then you can look up anything you need that Dos can do.

Summary: It's Old but It Still Works
Comment: If you are running Dos on your computer this is a great book to get started with. I would recommend this book if you were only running Dos. If you are using Windows as an operating system, this book will help you understand Dos better, but I would not recommend buying it. The reason being is that there are alot of commands that you can not use in this book under MS-DOS, which is what Windows is running over. Kris Jamsa does a great job of explaining all the commands that a beginner would have no touble understanding. I'm a beginner myself. I have a great understanding of Dos now that I didn't before I read this book. This book would be a great learning tool for a person running Windows on their computer, but I would recommend buying a book more related to MS-DOS for your studies.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent Command Line Reference
Comment: Though DOS seems to be next on the endangered species list, Kris Jamsa breaths new life into this sometimes cryptic OS. Unfortunately, this edition only covers versions through DOS 6.0. The definitions and examples are thoroughly explained in plain english. The Command Reference chapter really breaks down the sometimes arcane syntax that you would find in the MS users manuals into easily understandable examples. This is a MUST HAVE reference for anyone who has the urge to jump into the realm of the Command Line.
