Compressive, easy-to-follow guide
15 Jan 2010
Format:Paperback
As a new netbook owner, I wanted a guide that would help me get the most of out of my new computer. This book fills the bill! I'm a long-time Mac owner who has owned Windows machines in the past, but there's a lot I don't know about Windows--or about netbooks in general. This book provided just the type of information I was looking. The range of material it covers would be useful for first-time computer owners or people with a lot of computer experience who just don't know much about netbooks. There's great information here for everyone. I immediately put some of Joli's tips into practice and am getting a lot more out of my computer now.
The book is extremely well written and easy to follow, with clear, useful illustrations. I highly recommend this book.
