Get WWW - Woody's Lowdown on Windows

Woody says:
There isn't a CD this time. Instead, WE HAVE A WEB SITE. CDs get too old, too fast. And with Web access nearly universal, a site was the only way to go.

"The Mother of All Windows 98 Books" is the first (and only!) book on the market that's based on the final, shipping copy of Windows 98. Mom wouldn't let us cut any corners. We poked and prodded and peeked under the covers to get the low-down on how Win98 really works. No rehashing the user's manual and on-line help. No cribbing from the Windows 95 books. MOM98 digs deep into Win98, and uncovers hundreds - no, thousands - of important new facts about features, problems and, uh, opportunities that you won't find in any other Windows 98 book.

If you read "The Mother of All Windows 95 Books," you know what we're talking about. Clear, concise explanations of what's really happening. Step-by-step analyses of how to fix problems, with tips about how you can tailor the fixes to your specific situation. Comments and commiseration from two (iconic) guys who know how messed-up Win98 can get, and know how to recover from the worst situations. Most of all, pointers on how to *avoid* the worst situations. All delivered with a twinkle in the eye, a chuckle here and there, and an occasional well-placed jab at the Microsoft designers who got us into this mess in the first place.

You'll find it all here in 800+ pages of riveting prose, indexed and cross-referenced and blood-sweat-and-tears tested so you can put it all to work right now. Watch Windows 98 as it responds to your every command, giving you power and flexibility in ways you never thought possible. Whether you're trying to figure out fonts, or stumbling over an installation error, or creating your first Active Wallpaper, Mom has the answers - the real answers - waiting for you in this book
