wow factor5
this book is what most LEARNERS have been looking for, for years,
it has as it claims non technical but informative instructions
that are easy to follow and give confidence AND the thing is it works,I have achieved more on my PC in the weeks of owning it than in the 18 months of struggling prior to the book. Thanks to the author and I'd say to anyone beginning GO FOR IT! it is great truly it is.

MIKE AND AUDREY5
We started using a computer a couple of years ago and went to classes and bought several books all of which were said to be "just what the beginner wants" Sadly being absolute beginners we struggled to get to grips with the computer even with these books until by chance we were recommended this book and we're both glad we listened to this advice--the book is an absolute gem and a must for any beginner--clearly written and very easy to understand and should be on sale in every computer shop.Hope there will be a second book by Lynn
