Bought this book to be used in class I would be taking at the local Technical College. This is edition 2 and the school has edition 6. There is not any difference in the two. It is very informative and gets you involved in the practicle aspects of computer maintenance. Would recommend this lab book for any new wanna be computer tech. It is easy to understand but takes some studying.
