Reader Reviews
This review is from: Master Visually Windows XP (With CD-ROM) (Paperback)
Here's an oddity. A computer book that's both comprehensive and easy to use. For anyone wanting to learn all about Windows XP without intimidation, look no further. The book is well organized, starting with elementary basics (such as general computer basics), then moving on to a wide range of topics: Working with digital cameras Setting up a home network Web publishing Creating/editing videos Creating audio CDs Customizing your computer And much more. Each task is explained in easy-to-read text and, of course, with visuals. Very helpful, but written primarily for beginners, NOT for XP or computer veterans. CD-ROM contains an evaluation version of Paint Shop Pro, FreeAmp music player, AbyssAudio Collection, and an e-version of the book. 621 pages
