Customer Reviews

Does what it says on the cover
A excellent book for those of us that aren't too familar with this computer lark.Very easy to read with great see-how guides.Lovely coloured pages that invite you to get involved,yet without bogging you down with too much information.I gave this book 5 stars although it doesn't cover some of 'vista ultimate' functions,but hey if you are man enough to handle the ultimate(like myself)then this book will serve you well,plain and simple.

A Useful Supplement to Vista's On-line Support.
This is a concisely-written publication with particular emphasis on Microsoft's Vista Home Premium version software. It covers most of the applications which a home-based user would need to access, in a clear and well-annotated manner, with good(coloured)illustrations and clear text. The reader does not require to digest the book's information, front cover to back, but can 'jump-in' to a particular chapter for instruction/explanation on a specific function or application. The publication title - 'Plain and Simple' is aptly chosen and since I am not, as yet, fully up-to-speed on the idiosyncracies of the Vista software, I have found it a very useful source indeed and would certainly recommend it to other users.

What the Title says

Very good Book it is Plain and Simple even an Idot like me can understand
