October 23, 2007; 06:08 AM STOW, OH - There are computer books for "dummies" and most users beyond
that - they know how to turn a computer on, check email, and surf the
Internet. There are books for geniuses that are over-detailed on
technology. But what about everyone else? Why can’t there be a book to
help with buying a new computer or help protect a user’s computer and
data without all the useless information?
Jim White set out to solve this problem with the publication of his
latest book, "Just the Computer Essentials". This 288-page fun and
informative book is jam-packed with answers to common questions that
the everyday computer user is looking for. "Just the Computer
Essentials" was written around Windows Vista™, Microsoft’s new
operating system and the version of Windows PC buyers will see on their
next computer.
"Just the Computer Essentials" is 34 informative chapters written in
more of a conversation than a manual to help ensure that it makes sense
for the average Joe. And, because sometimes pictures speak louder than
words, the 215 well-placed screen shots make sure readers can follow
along with every step of the way.
"Just the Computer Essentials" focuses on the following areas:
* Understanding exactly what to know when buying a new PC
* Protecting from dangers such as viruses, spyware, spam and phishing
* Setting up a backup strategy to safeguard all important files
* Recovering from system problems - starting with the least intrusive all the way to disaster recovery
* Migrating files and settings from one computer to a new PC running the Windows Vista™ operating system
"Just the Computer Essentials" is available now at bookstores through Ingram Books or from Amazon.com, BarnesAndNoble.com , and other online retailers.
