Product Description
Unusual book
Review
To the novice, Windows 98 can be a bewildering experience. This large Easy Steps guide can help users new to Microsoft's latest operating system get to grips with the huge amount of choices and programs built into it.
Beginning with an overview of the history of Windows, the book moves onto the basics of the desktop such as the taskbar, start menu and the My Computer icon. After this easy to manage introduction, we are guided through the built-in applications, printers, internet connections, networking, hard disk management and customisation before finally reaching the mysteries of the registry.
There are also a couple of chapters dedicated to the Plus! 98 add on pack and the upcoming Microsoft Office 2000 as well as a very useful guide to installing Windows 98.
The style of Windows 98 In Easy Steps is clear, with plenty of screen shots and pictures to help you along and at 380 pages represents excellent value for money, upholding the previous high standards set by the "in easy steps" range. It stands as a comprehensive and informative introduction to the operating system, with a few tasty morsels to tempt more experienced users. --Andrew Russell
