A Great Reference Book
I have been a Windows XP user for 10 years but I discovered things I didn't know in this book as well as finding some very useful hints for getting out of trouble. Written in a very clear,concise and understandable way (no gobbledegook). Even though I converted to Vista very shortly after buying the book, I still find many useful snippets of information which can be applied to both operating systems. A good buy particularly if you intend to stick with XP.
