While the "Dummies" books might be somewhat moreentertaining, this book gives you far more information. This bookprovided me answers to most all the questions I had, while keeping it simple. I'm no guru, so I needed some education in Win98, as I was using Win 3.11. Some of the other books I've read just leave me wanting a little bit more information. I didn't feel that way after studying this book. It is well laid out and makes an excellent reference while also giving short tutorials.

The one complaint I had was with some of the screen shots. Often there where screen shots that showed two or more different ways of viewing the same information. An example would be viewing your files using the Win95 "classic" view or with the new "active desktop" web view. The book would have a screen shot with each view, but often different things were shown in each shot, so it was hard to compare the actual differences between the two viewing methods.

All in all, I found this book to be an excellent resource.
