4.0 out of 5 stars It's great.
This book is helpful yet very humorous. You can find just about anything that you need to know without having to read the whole book or chapter. Windows 95 for Dummies is very easy to understand, in plain old english and not computer jargon. It answers most questions and easy to follow also. Good for us simple folks. :)

2.0 out of 5 stars only the terminally computer illiterate should get this
The VAST majority of information found in this book is stuff that the semi-knowledgable Win3.1 user will be able to figure out on his/her own in just a few hours. Good for folks who just bought a computer, pre-loaded with Win95; but for anyone else, don't waste your money.

This review is from: Windows 95 For Dummies (Paperback)
There are those among us that are still using Windows 95 and this book is a necessity. Everything one wants to know about W95 is here in a clearly written style. Find the answers to all your questions quickly and learn things you didn't know. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars 'Dummies' Opens the Window on 95', August 3, 1997
By A Customer
The combined effort and experience of Andy Rathbone and IDG Books make for interesting, informative and entertaining reading in the 1995 release of 'Windows 95 for Dummies'. Complete with fully illustrated examples and the humor of Rich Tennant's cartoons, this worthy addition to the Dummies series leads the novice computer user through the jungle that is Windows 95, steering them away from the many 'wild beats' that lurk in the dark. The Introduction provides a short synopsis of each section of the book, thus enabling the reader to appropriately choose their own starting point based on their level of confidence with 95. And the attention to detail, although meticulous, is not confusing to the reader. Sections related to the current topic are clearly referenced, with the Appendix and sumptuous Index providing easy access above and beyond the call of duty. If you must read a book about Windows 95 (and who among us shouldn't?), this is the one for you

3.0 out of 5 stars Good reference guide for us "over 30" who lived thru dos 3.3, December 14, 1996
By A Customer
After hearing all the horror stories about how confusing Windows 95 was, I was intimidated. This book guided me thru the transition and convinced me that I wouldn't break it! Like nearly all of the Dummie books, this explains in simple to understand plain English what all those buttons are for. A good addition to a home computer library
