This is a good refresher course if your like me who learned DOS early versions on my first computer, I enjoyed being in control before Windows took that away from us. The DOS prompt in windows now has very little meaning and capability. I use to be able to create small programs for personal use, That made a computer worth more than a game or the internet. technology some hurts more than helps, depending on who's getting fat from it.

I had this book years ago, when DOS was the "standard", as times changed I disposed of it as it was no longer needed. As I got involved recently in various scanning activities using DOS I had to purchase another copy of this great "dummies" book.
I THINK ALL THE "FOR DUMMIES" BOOKS ARE PRETTY WELL DONE. THEY USE HUMOR TO HOLD YOUR ATTENTION. THIS BOOK IS ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR BEGINNERS I THINK. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS AWHILE BUT I ALSO READ SOME TIPS AND IDEAS I HADN'T THOUGHT OF OR HAD THOUGHT OF IN A DIFFERENT WAY. I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR GOOD IDEAS. THIS BOOK HAS SOME.

I bought it for my son who just started computer school. He said it has been great for him. He is learning disabeled, so it really helps him.
