This book is Still useful with Windows XP

I bought this book some time ago and I still find it useful for my daily use with Windows XP. Specially the chapters on VBScript and HTML and the information on Networking still are very updated. If you still have Windows 98 because your hardware is not supported under Windows XP, (Some Video Accelerator cards) or you are interested in buying a cheap and still useful book for your Windows XP system, so don't look for more.....

Great book, but don't buy it

Mark Minasi is an abolute expert on everything Windows, especially networking and servers. This book, which is of course slightly outdated since the release of Windows 2000 and XP, is an excellent primer for those of us still stuck with the 98 version (e.g. gamers)...

The Power of an Operating Systems Class Focused on One OS

This book is a must for understanding how and why Windows 98 works. Remember this book isn't for beginners, so try and buy a beginners guide to Windows 98 along with this one.One example that this book is not for beginners: Another reviewer quoted what they thought was an error on page 105. Well, that person was mistaken because the book is quite correct. If that reviewer had read up to page 109 he/she might have learned that you first personalize the display settings to ensure that there is something to later edit and restore.So, the moral of this story is: "finish the book before you pass judgement."

Best Buy!!!

Too many know it all "experts" are putting "know nothing" guides on the market. With this reference guide your IS/IT supervisors will be asking you to handle 98 connectivity, configuration and all problems that come up. It is definitely the most in depth book I have seen on the market.
