Not 'dumb' enough.....:
Although the friends that I bought this book for are enjoying it, it doesn't give them the minute details that they really need. They have never had a computer before and this book assumes they know more than they do. We forget how overwhelming the computer was for us when we first got started and assume that everyone has a basic understanding of what to do. If this book is truly for dummies, it needs to be really basic for such people.

Short and to the point, for those of us not having the time or the desire to go over and over items before figuring out what you are reading! Good job Peter Weverka!
