5.0 out of 5 stars WebTV Made Quick and Easy, April 8, 2000
By JaxRed@webtv.net (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews
As a WebTV employee, Renee knew precisely what WebTV subscribers need to know to "get-up-to-speed" with WebTV. Renee explains the many functions of WebTV in clear, precise detail. Her "Quick Reference" will become your first source for WebTV information.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not smart enough to be a dummy., August 2, 2001
By Hugh (Laramie, WY USA) - See all my reviews
While Gentry's book has useful information it lacks some very basic information which is essential for the new user of WebTV. How about pictures of a keyboard and a remote indicating the function of all keys other than letters. For instance, wouldn't it be nice were there a discussion of the "option" button and what appears on the screen when the button is depressed.
