This review is from: Upgrade Your PC In a Weekend , Revised Edition (Paperback)

This is a great book for a non-technical person that want's to save a few bucks by upgrading their PC themselves. With this book and a screwdriver you can do wonders for your PC. OK so you might need some additional things such as memory and such but if your not computer hardware savey this book is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book, really different, October 18, 1999

This review is from: Upgrade Your PC In a Weekend , Revised Edition (Paperback)

This book has stuff in it that the average book on upgrading doesn't have, like extensive buying advice and help for shopping online for bargains. You'll come away knowing exactly what you want and where you want to buy it. The chapters on physically installing the hardware are adequate, but this book really shines in the selection, shopping, and troubleshooting information.
