Product DescriptionThis book was specifically written for the author's 85-year-old mother who is now a master, but it was also 'field-tested' by adults of all ages. Within one moth everyone was an 'expert' - sending and receiving e-mail, using the Internet, writing and correspondence, and playing music and games. You'll 'be connected' without the fuss and frustration - just simple step-by-step instructions, no jargon, no complications.

I returned the book. It is way out of date. Copywrite of 2000 and has not been updated. Netscape is no more, no mention of Google,RSS feeds plus many more features now available.
Rating: - First Week with my new PC
My mom said this book helped dispell some of the fear about getting started with her computer. She says it answered a lot of her questions in a format that was easy to understand. She would recommend this book to other seniors getting started with a computer.

The book is well written. The author writes to those who are not computer literate. Examples are helpful as well as the step by step instructions.
Rating: - It's the best!
I bought this as a Father's Day gift for my 89 year old father. He got a new computer and was completely overwhelmed. After attempting to read several other computer books he was about to give up. He is thrilled with this one and is very excited about using the computer again. He said "Finally, a book written in clear, easy-to-understand language that I can follow. This is the best!"
Rating: - Better than the Dummies series for the Complete New User
I bought this book and a dummies book for my 73 year old father who had never used a computer in his life before. He read both and learned more, and faster from this book - First Week with My New PC. His comment was that this book was the one geared to the complete newbie. He felt that the dummies book required a knowledge base that he, as a brand new user, did not yet have! Definitely highly recommended!
