2.0 out of 5 stars
Outdated, bad advice, nice pictures however,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Do-It-Yourself PC Book: An Illustrated Guide to Upgrading and Repairing Your PC (Paperback)
I bought this book thinking it might make a good companion text for an Adult-ed course I am developing. The technical advice it contains is out-of-date and I'm not sure it ever made sense in the first place. It has beautiful illustrations for things like "how to upgrade your monitor" (answer: "buy a new one"). I give the book two stars because the pictures are so pretty, but if you have a Pentium II with 32 Meg of RAM running Windows ME you don't want to upgrade, you want to replace it with a new computer. A nicely illustrated book with sensible advice like "donate your old computer to charity" or "take it the dump" wouldn't be worth the price of this book, but at least it would correct.

All i can say about this book is it is a wonderful guide. It is filled with large pictures and easy step by step instructions. Great for a beginner or a experienced person. I recommend this book to everyone. A good first book for people interested in upgrading or building their own PC.
