Having bought there qq days a new laptop with Windows 8, initially, I was a bit lost, as before, I was using Windows XP yet! This book is relatively full, even if it lacks some tips that should be mentioned (eg "comp stop" button on the office ...) and useful especially for beginners and those who do not know too PC .. . Otherwise, after qq days of practice and after becoming familiar with the new, Windows 8 is very easy to use, despite the many detractors, I think Windows 8 is a surprise and could make the Google & shadow its Android! Good quality / price ratio, handy pocket size, quite complete. I recommend!
