Summary: The Best
Comment: Window's Vista Bible by Alan Simpson is the best. It is like having the author sitting with you personally. Everything is clearly explained and I haven't come across a Vista or computer topic that is not discussed. He also includes a lot of extra notes and tips. I can't imagine any book like this being written any better.

Summary: Somewhat, but not Totally Helpful
Comment: Borrowed this book for assistance in transferring and setting up 4,000+ photos from Windows XP into numerous folders. The directions by Simpson given did provide what appear to be the promised results - an invaluable contribution.
Next, I tried using the book to set up a screen-saver using my photos. The dialog box referenced in the book did not exist - no help at all.
Have since returned the book; I'm thinking 50% assistance is not that good.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good for beginner and intermediate users
Comment: This is a good book to get started with Vista. If you are a beginner user or intermediate, this is the book for you. You will learn many things which saves you time. It is directed to 'use' Vista, to work with it in everyday life. It is well written, nice lay out. However, if you look for advanced tricks, undocumented features, hacker-type-of action and a real deep dive in understanding Vista, this book will not cover it. The advanced user will skip many pages because it is known stuff.
