5.0 out of 5 stars
A nice guide for new Internet users,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Use the Internet (Paperback)
This is an easy to use book for complete beginners who want to start using the net. I'm going to send it to my mom, who just got a computer for Christmas and wants to use e-mail and ebay.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Great for beginners but you NEED GOOD EYESIGHT,
By victor nazaire (Ottawa,Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Use the Internet (Paperback)
I bought the fifth edition about 3 weeks ago(June 15,2002)wanting a structured approach to Internet instead of my haphazard random approach; yes, the text is STILL valid in 2002 for the Internet for all the fundamentals for a beginner( I am a beginner) BUT YOU WILL NEED AN EXCELLENT EYESIGHT TO READ THE COLOR PICTURES; the text next to the pictures is easy to read but the screenshots of the computer monitor(screen) are way too small. That is the only reason I gave him four stars instead of five. Great book for beginners, you can complete a chapter per day easily in one hour in general with a lot of pleasure in discovering you understand everything. The How-to-Hints section are really more directed to advanced users, but surprisingly a beginner can understand and use them as well.GO FOR IT BUT GET SPECIAL LENSES TO VIEW THE SCREEN PICTURES.
