I have been a mediocre fan of the "Dummies" series. They do a decent job at teaching the basics on a subject. Where these books tend to shine is teaching a subject in an enjoyable format to the beginner. There are a host of beginner guides out there, but few are written and put together in such a way that even the casual PC user can understand them. Also the format is consistent from book-to-book. So if you have read one "Dummies" book you will feel comfortable with another.The Windows Me OS is a perfect topic for this type of book. Typically, the casual user wants a quick concise answer to a question without needing to read a complete history on why Microsoft decided to implement the change that is causing him/her trouble. Most beginners don't care why, they just want it fixed. If you like the "Dummies" format and are looking for a book that will make you feel more comfortable using Me, try this one out.
