Windows Vista Bible

By Alan Simpson
Todd Meister
A really big book about a really big operating system. Microsoft Windows has been around for nearly a couple of decades now. During that time, weve seen many versions. Sometimes the change from one version to another was minor. At other times, the change was more drastic. Windows Vista is definitely one of the more drastic changes. Not so much on the outside. Virtually anything
you already know about Windows still applies. The basic terminology is the same. The basic skills are the same. Most of the really big changes are in areas you dont see.

Introducing Microsoft Windows Vista

By William R. Stanek
Introducing Microsoft Windows Vista presents Microsoft Windows Vista, the latest version of the Windows operating system, and provides a comprehensive overview of the new Windows features for power users, administrators, and developers. This book has been written using the Windows Vista Beta to provide an early introduction to this powerful operating system.
Writing a book to a beta product has many benefits but also some drawbacks. Microsoft is able to publish the first edition of this book prior to the official release date of Windows Vista, which allows you to get advance information about the operating system. This will not only help you get a head start on learning the new Windows features, but it should also help you install, work with, and manage Windows Vista in the future.

Networking with Microsoft Windows Vista

By Paul McFedries
If you have just a single computer in your home or small office, and if youre the only person who uses that computer, your setup is inherently efficient. You can use the machine whenever you like, and everything you need your applications, your printer, your CD/DVD drive, your Internet connection, and so onare readily available.
Things become noticeably less efficient if you have to share the computer with other people. For instance, you might have to wait for someone else to finish a task before you can get your own work done, you might need to have separate applications for each persons requirements, and you might need to set up separate folders to hold each persons data.
User accounts and fast user switching in Vista ease these problems, but they dont eliminate them. For example, you still have to twiddle a thumb or two while waiting for another person to complete his work.

Windows Vista Annoyances

By David A. Karp
Internally, Windows Vista refers to itself as Windows 6.0. When held up against Windows 2000 (Windows 5.0) or XP (5.1), that means nothing more than the fact that Microsoft considers Vista to be a major milestone, and the basis for its operating systems for the next few years at least. (Its been seven
years since Windows 2000.)
Windows Vista is available in several different editions, each of which is supposedly intended for a different market. Theyre all the same versioneffectively,
the same softwarediffering only in the toys included in the box.
The top of the line is the Ultimate edition, available at more than twice the cost of the baseline Home Basic edition. The Home Premium and Business editions include most of the extras found in Ultimate, but at a cost only slightly higher than Home Basic. On the fringe, youll find the Starter and Enterprise editions, as well as Windows Home Server. See the What Does 64-Bit Vista Get Me? sidebar, next, for details on the 64-bit versions of Vista.

Windows Vista for Dummies

By Andy Rathbone
This books popularity probably boils down to this simple fact: Some people want to be Windows whizzes. They love interacting with dialog boxes. Some randomly press keys in the hope of discovering hidden, undocumented features. A few memorize long strings of computer commands while washing their hair.
And you? Well, youre no dummy, thats for sure. But when it comes to Windows and computers, the fascination just isnt there. You want to get your work done, stop, and move on to something more important. You have no intention of changing, and theres nothing wrong with that.
Thats where this book comes in handy. Instead of making you a whiz at Windows, it merely dishes out chunks of useful computing information when you need them. Instead of becoming a Windows Vista expert, youll know just enough to get by quickly, cleanly, and with a minimum of pain so that you can move on to the more pleasant things in life.

Windows Vista Secrets

By Brian Livingston
Paul Thurpott
Its impossible to cover all the new features of Vista in a single chapter. Many features warrant their own chapters because theres a lot to say about them or we found secret information that isnt in the Help text you get with Vista. Other new Vista features, although important, may be so straightforward that they
dont have any particular secrets. If not, we havent devoted any further space to them in this book.
But even features that dont have hidden features may be important for you to know about when you turn Vista on for the first time. Exposing those features to you is the purpose of the following overview.
