Teach Yourself Visually Laptops

by Nancy C. Muir

Are you a visual learner? Do you prefer instructions that show you how to do something - and skip the long-winded explanations? If so, then this book is for you. Open it up and you'll find clear, step-by-step screen shots that show you how to tackle more than 150 laptop tasks. Each task-based spread includes easy, visual directions for performing necessary operations, including: comparing different laptop models; using the keyboard and touchpad; connecting to a wireless network; adding PC cards and input devices; securing an Internet connection; and, setting up a low-battery alarm. Helpful sidebars offer practical tips and tricks. Full-color screen shots demonstrate each task. Succinct explanations walk you through step by step. Two-page lessons break big topics into bite-sized modules.

The book is fantastic for the very beginner computer user. It is set up with screen shots, simple how-to's, short paragraphs, and is very easily understood. I highly recommend this to any person who has just bought a new laptop.
