Way basic book:
Book is strictly for beginners and really does not cover the difference between behavior in previous windows operating systems and Vista. IMHO it should.
Not worth it:
I purchased this book to learn my way around Vista. I didn't think it was worth the money. It was more like a Welcome to Windows beginner book. I haven't found anything on here that has been helpful in my Vista experience. Much easier to just research online....
Windows Vista for Dummies:
Windows Vista for Dummies is just what I needed to allow me to, "step by step" transfer from my old program to my new computer... I am not dumb but I do enjoy following instructions, step-by-step, written with a little humor...
Thanks,
