Summary: There's no perfect computer guide.....
Comment: For people still using Windows 98 (which in the current worm- infested environment seems a distinct advantage) this book is about the best you can do. Explains basic stuff, has good illustrations, and if the book doesn't EXACTLY answer your question, with some searching you can usually figure it out. The big questions remain 1) why are these products so complicated and 2) why isn't Microsoft publishing the best guide? It's really too bad that the BEST sources of software tips are the Q&A columns in newspapers.

Summary: TOO MUCH 'FLUFF'
Comment: In reading this book, I was frustrated by too much unnecessary language. Having just bought my computer, and a total novice, I was anxious to learn every aspect of Windows 98. I was not impressed by the author's humor and feel it was a rediculous waste of paper. I didn't want 'fluff', I wanted 'meat'! It also didn't provide the 'in depth' information I was looking for. This book was far from meeting my needs. If you are serious about learning ALL of 'Windows 98' quickly, look elsewhere.

Summary: Dummy approved
Comment: I purchased this for the lady of the house, an admitted newbie, raw recruit clueless computer user. I set up a computer for her in the living room, put my old dusty copy of Win98SE in it, told her to consult the book and not me should she have a question, and turned her loose. The book has done a admirable job answering her questions. A couple of months after buying it, I thumbed through it, and it did the same for me. This dummy thinks it's great.
