  • Too Difficult to Read and Follow
Format: Paperback
The intent of this book is well placed, but the reality falls far short of being a useful guide. I understand it is written for dummies, but I feel like I am the dumbest of dummies for trying to follow this manual. First, it is published on a low quality newsprint, thereby making much of the text difficult to read, as there is little contrast between the ink and pages. This is especially a problem when trying to read the computer screen shots, which are of course in black and white. Therefore, the legibility is very compromised. I have also concluded that black and white manuals, which include photos of vibrantly colored computer screens, are basically useless. How dumb do you like to feel? I will be returning this book to Amazon. ... show more
