This review is from: Windows XP Home and Professional Editions Instant Reference (Paperback)

I've been using this book since I bought and installed Windows XP. I've been able to learn the new operating system in a very short period. He did a good job of organizing the book making it very easy to locate XP's features. It makes a very good handbook for learning XP.
