4.0 out of 5 stars
Good for Beginners,
By reviewer at HuNTUG (Huntsville Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Customizing Windows XP: Visual QuickProject Guide (Paperback)
A Visual QuickProject Guide
Reviewed by Jim Lauria HuNTUG member A good beginner's book for customizing an XP computer. Presented in easy to read text and full-color illustrations which hold your hand as you make your XP computer truly personal. Personalize the desktop, toolbars, start menu, folders and windows. Customize internet access, hardware and how to set up multiple users. This truly is a beginner's book and it may be too simple for anyone with even a little experience with XP, but for newbies it would be an excellent aide to getting the hang of one's computer. For a beginner book I'd give it 4 stars
