More information for potential readers
1. This book is 650 pages in length rather than the 560 indicated. It's big!

2. Gerry and I took great pains to make this the most accurate Windows 98 book available. Every tip has been tested on at least two different systems. We contacted the reader from Munich who claims that one of the tips rendered his PC unbootable (we haven't been able to duplicate that problem), but he has not responded.
