Best Internet book for iMac users
This is the easiest introduction to Internet usage for Mac users. I managed to set up a Web site for my business using only this book, and it was my first effort on a new iMac.

Pleasingly written, no detail
I thought the book was pleasingly written, but could not find basic information.For instance I needed to know how to set preferences in Netscape, and not only that but also what the various selections actuallymeant,and how they worked.The information on the above was very limited.Much of the book is devoted to listing interesting web sites.I found thebook a good overview but, if you need detailed information look elsewhere.

Don't fear the Internet, explore it!
This is the best book about the internet on the shelves, bar none. Both beginner and advanced user will appreciate this book, and keep it handy, as no matter how many times you look through it, you'll always spot new information you didn't notice before! It walks you step by step through configuring your connection, and starts you off collecting shareware to help you and internet sites to guide you. I bought my first Mac, and this book, and have been off and running ever since! This book takes an often confusing subject, & makes it fun ... Read more

Well Worth the $25 investment
I am a big fan of the other MCSE "dummies", books.This one is good, although it is not quite up to the standards of some of the others. It needs to be augmented with another study guide.Given the price oftranscender tests, it is probably worth the $25 for the practice CD alone,but the book has some shortcomings.For example, the book has only a pageor two on troubleshooting database problems and ODBC driver errors, but Isaw no less than 7 or 8 troubleshooting questions relating to databaseconnectivity on the test.I recommend the book, but I wouldn't expect topass the test using this as my only study guide.

Basically "Ace It! IIS4" with different questions
I just finished writing a review of Iseminger's "Ace It!" for the IIS 4.0 exam, and see no reason to repeat that here -- because they are just about the same book.Certain chapters read exactly the same.Read more
