| Windows XP can be a great tool, but it is all too easy to
trip over Windows XP's annoying traits more often than you
leverage its productivity. Windows XP power-users troll
online resources, documentation, and the expertise (or lucky
finds) of friends for valuable tips and tricks--a keyboard
shortcut here, an undocumented double-click there--to
eliminate annoyances, save time, and take control of their
Windows XP. But what if there was an easier way?
This new book presents literally hundreds of problems and
solutions, amazing power tips, cool tricks, and clever
workarounds in one clearly organized, easy to use, and
portable resource. Truly insightful and amusing, Windows XP
Power Hound gives Windows XP users practical hints for
everything from the desktop to Office programs to the
registry, and includes documented (but little-known) tips as
well as previously undocumented tricks. Windows XP Power
Hound moves far beyond mere productivity and explores what's
possible with Windows XP--including cool things you probably
never thought of doing.
An understanding of Windows XP basics will get the job done.
But discovering the most useful I didn't know that! tips and
shortcuts will make using Windows XP a far richer and less
frustrating experience. The practical, concise format of
Windows XP Power Hound makes it easy to dip into for a quick
tip from time to time; the warm, jargon-free tone makes it
easy to read cover to cover.
Anyone who wants to smooth out Windows XP's speed bumps and
get some serious speed to accelerate through the bottlenecks
will find that even a handful of these useful, to-the-point
tips will make Windows XP Power Hound worth its weight in
chocolate.
