Customer Review: The book is more a glossary of terms that are in the php manuals. I could not benefit from any effort (except on a couple of occasions where something is described in full) that could have been devoted to trying to translate theory into the things you really need to know when actually doing anything... more info
Customer Review: I purchased this book hoping to cover several aspects of the CPM exam. I read the first 10 chapters then ordered CPM's 2 exam test books. I could hardly get 56 out of 75 (CPM's passing score), while solving the questions of the book chapters I could get 8-9/10. The reasons is the questions asked in... more info

Customer Review: "Just the Computer Essentials" is an excellent choice for the computer "savy" or the "not so savy" PC user like me. I found it easy to follow, even through complicated topics. Just recently purchased a Notebook with

Customer Review: This book is for beginners and doesn't cover advanced materials related to real-world DGI+ programming. As an example, its matrix coverage is very limited. I don't know why the title of the book has "Pro" in it. Perhaps for its coverage of making custom controls. If the word "Pro" was not there, I... more info
Customer Review: Robert Thompson is a man who doesn't hold back from giving his opinion on why something is good or bad, either on his website or in his books. In _PC Hardware in a Nutshell_, he tells you just what he thinks of what's good and bad about PC components in just about any category you can think of, and... more info
