Found it difficult to translate the computerese. Would have been easier to follow if steps were outlined clearly with less cutesy chatter in between.
I learned a lot of neat tricks in this book. I'm so glad I took the time to look for it on .Too bad Vista is so complicated.
I bought this book back when Vista first came out. It was a lot of help especially when they were working out the bugs. I wouldn't recommend Vista but if you have it, this is a great book if you need help. It breaks everything down in case you're not comfortable with computer lingo.
