Summary: Having a good time with a much needed book!
Comment: When I first got this book, I took a few cursory glances at it, crunched a few buttons and made mistakes (and, blamed it on the book). However, I decided to buck up and pour myself into this tome just like I would a college text and start at the beginning. Yes I knew a lot of the basics, but wanted to give the book the benefit of the doubt. What I found out was (duh!), was that once I committed myself to actually learning from Mr. Mcfredries, read and follow along, I'm getting stuff done the right way. I am impressed with the no-nonsense, sometimes humorous stylings of this book. As I progress through, I feel I am having more control over my Operating System , rather than being intimidated by it. This is a valuable resource to any newcomer to the world of Windows, or to those who upgraded to ME.

Summary: A quick guide to all ya need to know about Win ME
Comment: I picked this book up just to understand the differences between '98 and ME. It's worked great! Mcfedries basically tells the newbies where to start, and the rest of us can just get crackin' on the changes!

There is still a lot of basic information, but it's still good to review these things when you keep changing operating systems!

This is a pretty good guide to Window's ME, I'd say for this price, you probably won't find a better introduction!

Summary: Great for people new to Windows
Comment: This is not a book for those with a previous relationship with Windows. It is written at a level where someone with little or no experience with Windows can use it. Everything is presented in a small step-by-step manner with few assumptions concerning knowledge of how you interact with Windows. If you are someone just starting a relationship with Windows, then this is the book for you. However, if you have used it before, then you will have to read a lot to learn very little. I can't help wondering how big that market really is.
All of the fundamentals such as creating, saving, moving and deleting files are covered, as well as e-mail and basic customization features. Networking features and the use of specialized hardware such as scanners are explained in great detail.
Boring if you are experienced, an effective guidebook if you are a newbie, this is a book with little middle ground. Simply put you, either you need it or you don't.
