Over the years my notes evolved into handouts for my classes and from handouts into a book made specifically for beginning and intermediate computer users (alpha geeks need not apply). The book is over 250 pages and covers Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000 and XP. Topics range from speeding up your computer to hardware optimizing to software updating, with sections on your BIOS and how to clean the dust out of your computer.
This is not a “you need to go and buy a…” book and if you don’t want to open your case there is no need to.
