Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I have used computers for years, but I have never had a course in the basics. Just learning about how to use folders and where to store information was a big help. I am now more organized and I can find my information quickly. I think anyone who needs to know more about the computer, and has not had a basic course, would benefit from this book. I am ready to move on to a little more advanced computer training and I will look for the same author, since his humor grabbed my attention and made it fun to learn.

⭐Good general overview witty some new information. Novice could benefit from reading. Has good definitions of technical terms for beginners.

⭐I bought this when I bought my 1st computer (used) and it did help me with the occasional problem solution . With the new operating systems I don’t know how much it would help now.

⭐VERY HELPFUL FOR THE NOVICE COMPUTER NUT. IT’S READABLE FROM PAGE 1 TO THE END, BUT ALSO, EASY TO LOOK UP STUFF USING CHAPTER HEADINGS OR THE INDEX. LIKE ALL ‘DUMMIES’ BOOKS, HUMOR IS THERE FOR THE ASKING. I RECOMMEND IT.
