Amazon.com Review

One of the more appealing teaching series available, the Murach Crash Course series offers this edition as guidance in the short but sweet task of honing your skills in Windows 95 and NT 4.0. One glance at this efficient volume shows that these Murach people mean business. Weighing in at well under 100 pages and with a "How to..." starting off each page, the book imparts the basic survival skills for Windows 95. Crash Course: Windows 95 and NT 4.0 teaches you how to work with Windows (tasks like minimizing and maximizing), use menus and commands, manage folders and files, utilize shortcuts on the desktop, access network drives, use the control panel, work with printers, and perform other everyday tasks. The book assumes that managers, trainers, small-business owners, and other computer users don't have the time or patience to learn a new operating system or application. Crash Course's lessons offer no-nonsense instruction without being insultingly simplistic. It is ideal for business users who are tired of excessive handholding and long-winded descriptions of how to open menus and windows.

Review

The Murach "Crash Course" titles are specifically designed for managers, trainers, people "on the job", consultants, small business owners, and trainees who all have one thing in common -- a lack of time. Crash Course: Windows 95 & NT 4. 0 is an inexpensive, work-saving, confidence-building, example-packed, lightning-quick, user-friendly training manual that will have the reader up and running in a fraction of the time that more traditional guides. This is because it concentrates on the fundamentals, the essentials, the core of the software system. Two other not-to-be-missed titles in the Crash Course series cover Word 95 and Excel 95. Highly recommended for the busy person "on the job". -- Midwest Book Review
