Since I have used Windows XP and Vista, I purchased this book to learn the changes in Windows 7. Great illustrations on how it is done and can be used by a first time user or some one upgrading to Windows 7. It is not as comprehensive as the Teach Youself Visually series but for a casual user or some one upgrading is it a quick reference to the changes. The artwork is great and easy to understand.

OK--none of the early books on new operating systems will be all that great, however this one is better than the first one I purchased that was by Microsoft. The problem is that these self help books are written about the time the software is being prepared for release to the public and therefore the writers don't have enough expierence to write a really great book. This book has lots of pictures detailing how a particular action works and that is good. Don't expect though to learn about everything that Windows 7 can do for you as these writers just either don't know or it was too early in the process for them to learn about everything Windows 7 has to offers.

Easy to follow as all information is supported by graphics that are exactly what you see on your monitor.

Very user friendly for a new Windows 7 person. I would recommend it to anyone that does not like complicated explanationns.

Windows 7 Simplified is a great text for anyone switching from another Windows program or for anyone just getting a computer and wondering how this operating system works. This read less-learn more text is great because it not only has illustrations to walk you through each step, but it also has other tips, easily found in boxes, throughout the text. All the Simplified Read Less-Learn More texts are the way to go to feel comfortable with your computer. Microsoft Office Word 7 and other components of Word are also well done in this Simplified kind of text. Great for beginners and intermediates.

Windows 7 is really easy and super fast to learn and use,I really love on how well winows 7 step by step helps porovide easy steps to learning windows 7 it's self explainatory, with lots of tips on how to help you get the most out of it.

A HELPFUL Book after going from a old operating system to a complete new operating system. A "GOOD" step by step computer book. Easy to read and understand. If your needing help, this is the book to purchase.

So far its given all the information I need to use Windows 7, also its very easy to look up things,
