| add it to the stack | 2010-03-28 | 5 / 5 |
| | I've got so many of these types of books, cuz as far as I'm concerned, each book has a little some thing that all the other don't have. It could be nothing,or it could pertain to an insignificate thing that may be a fix. Thats why I have a stack I've bought used thus saving a fortune, yet out fitting my library! JS |

| | well, this book arrived in good conditions ,clean ,and nice ready to use it, ,buy it |
| Not technical at all | 2007-09-05 | 3 / 5 |
| Absolutely not a technical book with a missleading title..because the simple fact that the word BIBLE imply everything is cover ,and this is not the case.I will call it "Introduction to Windows Vista Ultimate"..
Part 1 (with 6 chapters) is and stormy rush thru Windows Vista Ultimate and then you will be send to the others parts of the book for expanding
explanation..so that looks redundant to me..Another thing is the use of not realy windows words like Chapter 3 "contextual toolbar" to explain the change on the menu toolbar.I typed in help Contextual toolbar and shows nothing..But first time users that not like the tutorial included with the progam is perhaps ok, but a waste of money ,in my opinion buying this book.
Thanks |
| Terrible Typography! | 2007-08-23 | 1 / 5 |
| | This large, fat, reference has 762 pages in a very light 10-point typeface (perhaps 9-point). The lightness of the font makes the small type almost unreadable. Worse, almost every page has a view of a Vista window, with type so small as to be absolutely unreadable, and with the images printed in a very light gray, so that the images are almost useless. The text may be correct, but what good is it if it is unreadable? And by the way, the index type is smaller still. Get a big magnifying glass or buy a different guide to Vista. |
| Vista Ultimate Reference for Home Users | 2007-07-06 | 5 / 5 |
| There are undoubtedly many books covering Windows Vista these days. This Windows Vista Ultimate Bible is very home-user oriented. Yet, in my opinion, it is still a wonderful book! There's much emphasis on gaming, multimedia enhancements, music, videos, and audio. Also, 4 chapters are dedicated to networking, Internet, and tweaking Vista for optimum performance. I also appreciated full color inserts throughout the book. A very nice addition, I must admit. 5 stars.
