    Very helpful book

    I've been able to learn about Windows XP by using it but I'm always interested in learning more. I saw this book on ebay and thought it would be helpful with learning more than what I had already figured out. I really like this book. It's especially helpful with the way it was written since I sometimes have a problem understanding things about the computer. Along with the illustrations, it has been very easy for me to grasp the instructions.
