1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, July 3, 2007
This review is from: How to Host your own Web Server (Paperback)
Poorly written, horrible grammar, extra-large font & huge black and white pictures. It's mostly filler. A quick google search or a visit to the Microsoft web site will provide you with more detailed and relevant information than that given here. In fact, this is an expensive 80+ page version of your "help" documentation that shipped with windows. Sorry for having to write such a bad review, but given the price of this book (btw: it's a magazine) and the author's credentials, I can not recommend it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, December 10, 2006
By A. Zumwalt (Middleton, ID, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: How to Host your own Web Server (Paperback)
The book was a little disappointing to me. The book is $42.99 and only 85 pages long. The font and the images are so large that it took me less than an hour to read the whole entire book. There were many typos in the book which could have been easily caught by the publisher, if he had one. There was no mention of a published on my copy.

On the bright side, I did learn some helpful tips on hosting web sites. I just wish I had more content for the money.

I have this book. It is very well written and easy to understand. I highly recommend this book. Makes it easy for us not-so-technical users.
