Configuring and Troubleshooting Windows XP Professional (With CD-ROM)

Rating:
Summary: Beginners only
Review: Although this is a nice thick book, I didn't find any information in this book that couldn't be found just configuring Windows XP and using the help file. If I knew nothing about TCP/IP or DNS it would be helpful. Also, the CD is just the book on CD, it doesn't include any utilities or neat things for windows.
If you know nothing about computers this book might be helpful. If you have been using computers and need a resource book, look somewhere else.

Summary: Excellent WinXP Book
Review: This is a great book for system admins. I've noticed in my reviews of other popular WinXP books that they spend a lot of time telling you how to work the right mouse button, and what a "window" is. This book takes the tech perspective, and has a ton of tips, tricks and secrets you won't find in the other books. As the editor of the largest Windows XP newsletter out there, ... , I give this book a "two fat thumbs up". It doesn't get much better than that!
