What readers are saying about Internet and E-mail for Seniors with Windows XP

“I got this for my sister-in-law (age 52) who knew practially nothing about the internet or email. She loves it. She would pick a few things a day and learn to use them. I would say in as little as a week, she was quite good at what she was doing - e.g., attaching images to email messages. Like anything, as long as you're motivated to work at it, then this is ideal for the wanna be computer user.” - Cindy Brock
“When my uncle got his first computer at 80+ years of age, he asked where he could find the instruction manual. What he meant was, "Where is the book that tells me how to use the internet and how to use Windows?" I had to tell him that no such thing existed then. This book and the companion book on Windows are those books, and - even more miraculous - he is using them! These books are basic, clear and easy to understand - good for anyone who needs to start at square one.” - Jane Anderson
“This is the second manual I have purchased from this publisher. I have found this one to be as informative and easy to follow as I expected.” - G. Holloway - Westbury, NY
