Product Description:
You know you're light years ahead of most computer nerds. For example, you can make conversation with a neighbor without mumbling about the latest "Flash ROM Upgrades." But when it comes to Windows and computers, the fascination just isn't there for you, is it? You just want to get your work done, go home, feed the dog, walk the cat, and relax for a while. You don't want to spend half the night wondering why Windows 2000 keeps giving you an error message that's keeping you from finishing you work.

That's where Windows 2000 Professional For Dummies can help. This book may look similar to all those earlier Dummies books on Windows, but it's been completely revamped to describe Windows 2000 Professional, the "business" version of Microsoft Windows – which is probably what you have on your desktop computer or laptop at work. You can get the skinny on all those new features of Windows 2000 Professional, if you've recently upgraded from Windows NT or Windows 98. And experienced Windows 2000 Professional users may be able to fine a tidbit or two that they didn't know.

You won't find any fancy computer jargon in this book. Instead, you'll find topics like these, discussed in plain old English:
  • Understanding your computer hardware
  • A review of basic Windows stuff, from double-clicking to opening and closing programs
  • An introduction to those networking things your tech people think you should already know
  • Examining all those Windows buttons, bars, and boxes
  • Getting around on your company's intranet
  • Actually getting something done (imagine that!), such as printing documents, faxing, and setting up e-mail
  • Troubleshooting and deciphering those cryptic error messages
  • Top Ten lists on Windows 2000 Professional's new features and on things that Windows 2000 doesn't do too well (and how to work around them)


You know you're no dummy; but you don't appreciate being made to feel like one when you sit down in front of a computer. Windows 2000 Professional For Dummies can ease you through your Windows frustration and help you do the work that you're supposed to do.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - slow boat delivery
Product in good condition as received, however time between buying and receiving tooooo loooong.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - If you need the bare minimum...
There is two sides to this book. In one respect it is not nearly as comprehensive as it should be, in the other, it is ideal for someone who knows nothing about computers. Windows Professional for Dummies takes you through the bare minimum of features on a step-by-step basis. The advantage of this is that you don't have to be a genius to use the book, but the disadvantage is that you don't get as much out of the book as you would have liked. When my father first started using a PC he knew nothing ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - not as helpful as other dummies guides
Although I enjoyed the usual snide tone of this dummies book, my major complaint is that it never gets beyond the dummy level. I read the whole book in one sitting -- now I'm hardly a computer genius and have only had Windows 2000 for a week, but I only learned THREE new tricks from this entire book! I never thought of myself as a computer jock, but this book had such basics that I began to feel like a true nerd. There are other major things I wanted to learn about windows 2000: why does it make ... Read More


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Written for the stupid
As a programming professional for over 25 years, I routinely use the "For Dummies" books to get a quick introduction to a new topic. My problem with this book is that it is written with the attitude that the reader is stupid, not ignorant. Ignorant means you don't know, stupid means you cannot learn. From the beginning, the author treats his reader in a condescending fashion, which serves to turn off, not inform.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hey, That's Why They Call it "For Dummies"
Great book for beginners. If you want advanced stuff go look for "Windows for Geniuses", this isn't the book for you. But if you're new to Windows 2000, this book will be a lot of help and its funny too.
