The publisher O'reilly is normally the standard on well written technology books, (well in depth well written technology books). This book however was not what it is advertised as. It does not provide you with "everything you need to manage and maintain Windows 7" in fact, it is simply a basic user's reference at best.
Rather than rant however, I will simply point out that the brand new to windows 7 UAC receives one short very brief chapter that fails to cover how to manage the available programs on the start menu for different user accounts on the computer, but devotes nearly half the book to the basic functions of Internet explorer, movemaker and several other generic Microsoft programs that are installed with the OS automatically, (yes the author does tell the reader how to uninstall them).
For the basic user, there are other books that cover the workings of windows 7 in much easier to read detail, and certainly video tutorials online for everything covered within this book. For power users and those of you who know how to change the home page on IE or can change the resolution to your monitor without needing a screen shot to make sense of the menu, there are certainly more detailed titles out there.
Very Disappointing
By Peter P.
Windows 7 does have quite a learning curve. There is a tremendous amount of information on Windows 7 (938 pages) in "Windows 7 - The Definitive Review". The small index (20 pages) is not sufficient for such a large volume. I was looking for how to change my mouse from double-click to single-click. I could not find the solution under MOUSE or SINGLE-CLICK or DOUBLE CLICK. Eventually, I found the solution listed by way of FOLDER OPTIONS but not detailed in the index.
