Customer Reviews

My customers like it

Most of my customers (computer shop) who get this book say they like it, preferring it to other more "wordy" beginner books (e.g. Dummies books). I think it really does help those who make use of it (but not all of my customers who buy it actually crack it open and sit down at the computer with it open in front of them, unfortunately).

Clear, concise, easy to use

Although we make extensive use of laptops in our photography business, I am learning many new things that I can do with Windows XP to make our laptops run better and faster and to access programs more quickly. This wonderful little book is very clear, with illustrations that are easy to see and follow. Highly recommended.

Teach Yourself Visually

This book was excellent in showing the problem you might be having and showing you the answer, exactly the way it was scene as on the computer. I started with my computer in September, 2006 and have never been taught. This book has helped me in full detail. It is written in language you can understand as well as showing you in detail. It will be good for any age. Carol

Windows XP

I have been teaching in our town's senior center since April '2000. This is an update to the book we have been using and find it to be an excellent source for beginners and those a little more experienced.

Teach Yourself Visually Windows XP

I recommend this book so very much especially for Mac users going to a PC. I was so apprehensive while waiting for my new Dell so I bought this book first. By the time I received my new computer, I felt I knew my machine enough to feel comfortable and really looking forward to the transition. It continues to be everything I expected and more. Very Easy to read and follow, and the colored illustrations make it a breeze to learn Windows XP.I recommend this book and well worth the money.
