5 out of 5 stars Every thing you will ever need   November 27, 2009
James M. Lavin (Maryland)
I am in the computer business (Repair, install, etc.) and I needed answers to Windows 7 that were complete and understandable. This book does just that. I also like the fact that a DVD containing the entire book came along with the purchase. It allows me to have a handy reference on my laptop while traveling. The book is thick and too heavy to carry around.

Glad I have it.

I just scratched the surface, but like what I see. It is much too early to really judge the book. I already know that it tells me more of what I want to know than the other book I bought.



5 out of 5 stars This is THE Win 7 Bible!   October 31, 2009

I'ver read too many poorly written books by technical specialists who just don't write very well. This book is not one of those. It is well-written, all-encompassing, and provides thorough, understandable, technical help for the novice and the geek alike. The reader can either use this book as a reference or he/she can read it from cover to cover. I did the latter--twice! I just couldn't absorb all the cool and fantastic features in one reading. This is the first time since 1988 that I feel I really have a handle on my OS. If you are running Windows 7 (any version), you cannot do without this manual. It may appear absurd to say that Windows 7 Inside Out can be life-altering, but it can be just that! Geeks and neophytes ought to celebrate.


5 out of 5 stars Really informative   October 29, 2009

Really informative book with all the specifics down to the core making Windows 7 simplified as it possibility can be; plus many bonuses,tips, tricks and much more.


5 out of 5 stars Will make you comfortable installing and using Windows 7   October 28, 2009

This book arrived in early October prior to my preordered copies on Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade. By reading portions of this book, I was able to do a clean install of Windows 7 on a desktop and laptop computer. I had to find one driver for the sound on the laptop and knew how to find it by checking in this book. The sections on Home Networking make connecting to your network very easy. I then setup my Homegroup by following the clearly defined information provided by the authors. Everything that you need to know about the basics is presented clearly in this book. One can easily add E Mail and secuity features by checking those sections of the book. There is also advanced information that I do not need but there for those with the interest and skill to use. I highly recommend this book.
