    1 out of 5 stars Windows 7 for seniors   July 14, 2010

    Maybe I know more than I thought I did, but this book is so beyond basic that it was NO help for me

    I have just started going through the Windows 7 for Seniors for Dummies book, slowly. The "seniors" means big print which I appreciate. I have had a computer for years and was familiar with the XP and find that this version is an improvement on that. It may take me some time to review all the information in the book, however I am finding it very useful.

    I am so glad I ordered this book. This author knows what a senior adult needs to know about Windows 7, wouldn't be without it;


    5 out of 5 stars My Father loved this   June 28, 2010
    J. Perdue (BUHL, IDAHO, US)
    This came to me in a timely manner - My father loved it! He has been fighting the computer age but now knows he really does need one. I got him a laptop and this is the easiest way for him to learn (by book) so this seemed perfect and fitting. He is doing great with it and almost ready for the computer age :-)

    I purchased this for my daddy's cousin who is 93 years old and received her first computer as a present. She called me and said she had learned more from this book by herself than she had from everyone trying to teach her. She's searching for information and doing email now.
