Amazon.co.uk Review
If you're new to the world of computing or have wrestled with a PC only to come off second best then help is at hand with this excellent introduction to Windows 98. It starts by introducing the mouse and showing how to use it. Then, to boost confidence with the Windows interface, it covers subjects such as use of the Start menu, resizing windows, scrolling, how toolbars work, managing files and folders and shutting down Windows 98. Things start to get a bit more detailed after that, with introductions to various Windows 98 tasks and applications like using Outlook Express, Web browsing, printing, and finally, customising the desktop and using the system tools to ensure maximum performance.
This structure means that users will build their confidence as they progress, and learn about some of the less well-known applications that come with Windows 98 like QuickView, the tool that lets you see files in a range of different formats. --Sandra Vogel
