4.0 out of 5 stars
Great First Computer Book,
By Miriam (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Teach Yourself Computers, 3rd Edition (Paperback)
I bought this for a twelve-year-old who is always asking questions about the computer. It answers those questions and does so in simple language with terrific illustrations. Each item -- processor, memory, hard drive -- is shown in clear pictures with explanatory text. The book covers PC and Macintosh hardware, software, the Internet, and networking basics.
