Customer Reviews

Help the aged!!
got "Internet for Seniors" as well as the "laptops for seniors" for my 56 year old mum who has no computer experience at all. I'd highly recommend both, they have alot of screenshots to make things clear, with little tips on things to remember and things not to forget. There are some good sites listed in the book as well such as quizzes and crossword sites that she has enjoyed going on. I got these instead of the "For Dummies" series as i wanted to avoid any Americanisms, i'm happy that i made the right choice, and mum can now happily send and recieve e mails with attachments and browse and buy things online. (she was scared to write a review though!)

review by beanz
i brought this book for my nan, as she had just purchased a laptop and did'nt have a clue on how to use it, so i brought her this book, a couple of weeks later she was on it all the time. highly reconmended!!

Looks good, but is only for Windows Vista
This looks pretty good but please be aware it is for Windows Vista only and not XP.

This means that much of it is not very useful if the recipient has Windows XP.
