3.0 out of 5 stars
CliffsNotes starts out strong, finishes prematurely.,
This review is from: CliffsNotes Setting Up a Windows 98 Home Network (Paperback)
While this book has some information, it is not enough for the neophyte to set up a home network successfully without some other resources. It gives a good overview of networking up to a point, including what equipment to buy, how to get started, etc. But it falls down in the troubleshooting area. Computer projects always include trouble, and troubleshooting help is needed to make this a good book.
