    This is a must have and an offer you can’t refuse.
    I have been recommending this since its publication
    for anyone wanting to get up to speed with Windows 7.

    I would go so far as to say if you were to have one book on
    Windows 7 this should be it, whether power user or novice.

    • @Robert

      Thanks muchly. Are you on my new Facebookpage yet? http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mike-Halsey-MVP/198636693505437

      Either way, get in touch, send me an email through my website fella :)

        You’re quite welcome, Mike.

        I am not on Facebook or I would join your page straightaway.
        My studiously maintained low profile might be heightened
        a bit and Facebook is definitely on the horizon if it is.

        I’ve saved your Facebook link and I will give you
        a shout out should I take the delayed plunge.

        In the meantime, I will send you an email
        on your site and I grabbed its feed too.

        Cheers —
        as my friends across
        the pond are fond of saying :)

    Looks very nice, and ya can’t beat free. Will keep in my files for when I take that plunge into 7 some day. First thing I’ll be looking to do is trim some fat off of it.

    Also, the reviews on that page are pretty…special. It downloaded with no problem here.

    Thanks a lot.

    Wish there was something similar for Windows XP too.

  15. Mike says:

    I believe this is the Gizmo article that was being referred to. Is where I found out about this goldmine too.

  17. Ken says:

    Thanks, this is another tool to help me better manage Windows.

  18. metaluna says:

    Just what I needed and thanks so much! I’m a long time lover of XP but have a new PC coming Wed. with Windows 7. I was slightly nervous about the differences and understanding them until I read your guide.

  19. Dennis Q says:

    Thank you Mike for a very useful book. I have just installed Windows 7 so this is going to be a big help. I live on a very limited Disability pension so this free book you have chosen to give away fits my budget very well.

  20. poraguy says:

    Thanks very much Mike, I am going to recommend it to our computer club and I believe it will help lots of folks.

  21. Benjy says:

    Mega thanks Mike!

    Filled in some of the gaps and a good reference map for W7

    Cheers bud!
