Visually Stunning 20 April 2005
By Jim - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you're looking for a book that combines excellent step by step tutorials with very crisp, clear four-color visuals, then this is the book for you. You may wonder why the world needs another XP book, but the contents and design make this one worth grabbing.

I found it invaluable 3 Sep 2006
By Charles Ashbacher - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you have any interest in using the multimedia features of Windows XP, then this book is for you. Even if you are an expert user of computers, the increased speed with which you will learn how to exploit the myriad of features is worth the price. Every feature is demonstrated using high quality color images that shows precisely what you will see and directs you to the next action.

There are sixteen chapters and the titles are:

*) Getting started with Windows XP multimedia

*) Working with digital cameras and scanners in Windows XP

*) Working with images in the My Pictures folder.

*) Putting images to work in Windows XP.

*) Viewing photos with the Windows picture and FAX viewer.

*) Setting up Windows Media Player.

*) Playing audio files with Windows Media Player.

*) Playing music from the My Music folder.

*) Downloading and recording audio files.

*) Listening to Internet radio.

*) Playing DVDs with Windows Media Player.

*) Setting up Windows Movie Maker.

*) Working with video clips in Windows Movie Maker.

*) Adding extra effects to video clips in Windows Movie Maker.

*) Downloading and recording video files.

*) Playing Windows XP games.

I found this invaluable on several occasions when I wanted to use a multimedia feature of Windows XP.

A glorified "Dummies" book... 13 May 2005
By Katluver - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
If you are looking for a juvenille picture book to explain how to use certain components in Windows XP, then this is the book for you. If you are looking for something with substance, DO NOT buy this book.
