[gui-talk] What computer books would you buy if they existed?

[humberto]

I think a book dealing specifically in Windows 7, since people 
are so new to that operating system. I myself don't even know how 
it works because I use XP and don't have experience with Vista or 
windows 7 - although I'd like to upgrade. So, I'm sure that a 
book on Windows 7 will be so welcome. Any thoughts are also 
welcome.

Braille Press.

NBP charges
