5.0 out of 5 stars Using the latest MS Internet applications? You need this!, July 3, 2000
By A Customer
Most computer users these days are not happy with the lack of book type documentation for applications and the reliance being increasingly placed on embedded help files which are often frustrating and inadequate.

A large gap often exists and a good market is there for authors and publishers who understand this. This book fills this gap and does it well.

Internet Explorer for the Macintosh is curiously named, for it actually covers the two latest (Version 5) Internet applications Microsoft Internet Explorer - the web browser and MS Outlook Express the e-mail program.

For the Mac user of the Internet using the MS applications, both for the experienced user upgrading from earlier versions, and for the new Internet user whose first experience will be versions 5 of the MS programs, this is in my opinion an essential text - gap filling for the former and all embracing for the latter.

It is an invaluable, no nonsense, guide - the first available.

In my limited use of the latest Versions of Browser and E-mail program - I only recently upgraded - this Visual Quickstart Guide has certainly enhanced my fluency and helped me use both programs more effectively and efficiently. For the new user it will provide a broad reference base.

It is an good guide, available at modest cost and the first to reach the market. It is very easy to follow, copiously illustrated, with screen dumps and interesting and handy tips which enhance its utility and usefulness.

Well done Mr Steve Schwartz and Peachpit Press!
