A First Class Tour of a First Rate Browser,
By nevadageo (Reno, NV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Opera Web Browser for Dummies (Paperback)
This is a browser for the rest of us. Opera is a fast browser with clean code, that outperforms Netscape and Windows Explorer in several areas. For beginners to power users, the author has gone deep inside the software to show us how to use the full power of the browser, and even documented some tricks you might not have thought possible. If you are serious about getting the most out of the Internet, give Opera a try, and take a comprehensive tour of it with this book.

Better than nothing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Opera Web Browser for Dummies (Paperback)
Biased because I abhor the word dummies in all their books, I really didn't want to buy this book. However for beginners there just isn't much available. Although the information is there, I don't think it is really organized to suit the learning pattern of someone who is really just learning, computers or the web.
