Special Edition Using Microsoft Windows XP, Professional

Written for and by real-people-While many authors spend time trying to impress the reader with their technical expertise, Bob and Brian drive right to the point with clear, natural language that their readers have come to love and expect. Their books explain deep technical concepts in a way that is truly meaningful to people who have better things to do with their lives than pour over stately and obtuse computer tomes. Hands-on, roll-up-your-shirt-sleeves advice. Bob and Brian don't just tell readers how to use the Windows features and point them elsewhere for networking or hardware advice. Instead, they help the readers choose, install and configure network hardware and software that work in concert with Windows. Special Edition Using Microsoft Windows XP Professional is the de facto Windows XP Pro reference and one you shouldn't fire up your Windows XP computer without! Get the book that PC World magazine reviewer Steve Bass says if he had to choose just one book to help him master Windows XP, "this would be the one." Explains how to perform everyday tasks and how to customize a desktop, set up a home network, manage digital media, and publish files on the Web.
