This book offers a friendly, professional approach to accomplishing the most popular basic computer and Internet tasks. It identifies the approximately 30 tasks that the PC novice wants to perform and then draws a map showing novice users how to achieve their goal. Real-life examples show how to use a PC to perform practical tasks, such as printing letters and greeting cards, creating a resume, managing finances, and shopping on the Internet.
The author bases the tasks on the most popular software programs that are typically packaged with PCs, but makes them flexible enough to incorporate a variety of programs. New to this edition is coverage of MP3, burning CDs, handheld computing, video editing, and voice recognition.
