Windows 98 Complete is a one-of-a-kind computer book--valuable both for the breadth of its content and for its low price. This book was created with three main goals in mind: to provide new users and upgraders essential Windows 98 coverage at an affordable price, to give you more general knowledge about computers and the Internet than other Windows books...so that you get the most out of Windows 98 immediately, and to introduce you to some of Sybex's best authors who have written larger or more specific books that will help you learn even more about Windows 98 and your computer.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
Printed on newsprint in a single-ink color, Windows 98 Complete is designed to be a no-frills volume with a low price to match. But don't be put off by the humble format. Over 900 pages long, the book is a compilation of chapters from over 10 different Sybex publications that, collectively, cover just about everything an end user would ever want to do with Windows 98. This includes installation, mastering and customizing the Windows 98 interface, installing and running software, and using the Internet for Web browsing and e-mail.
Some of the sections--those on using and customizing the Windows 98 interface, for example--are fairly introductory in nature, the sort of basic orientation that will help a new user. But other sections get into the more powerful aspects of Windows 98 that turn a beginner into a power user. In the latter category are sections on printer and peripheral installation, disk maintenance, data compression, system troubleshooting, and using Windows 98's extensive remote-access features with a variety of protocols. Professional network administrators will need even more information about Windows 98 than this book contains, but its clear organization and high information density make it a strong pick for end users, whether they're computing for work or for fun. --Thomas Mace

Meet your computer.,
By Sarah (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Windows 98 Complete (Paperback)
This book is quite helpful for any "new to computer" people. I used this book to teach a summer school class how to efficiently use the Windows 98 program. It went well. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a better understanding of computers.

By A Customer
This review is from: Windows 98 Complete (Sybex Inc) (Paperback)
Having been disappointed with the books available in the help and books on line section of windows 98 operating system I purchased this book purely on the size and price of the thing. It tells you all about the little thing that Microsoft didn't mention like crashes and in compatibility! Well I haven't been without this book,and any problems that have occurred have been covered in it. Well done ....buy it!
