New book: “Windows 7: The Missing Manual”

Windows 7 comes without a single page of printed instructions. Fortunately, David Pogue is back, ready to serve as your clear, funny, expert guide with Windows 7: The Missing Manual.

With this book, you’ll find the important stuff you need to know:

The new features. The pop-up taskbar. Libraries and jump lists. Internet TV. Touchscreen gestures. Aero Peek, Snap, and Shake. If Microsoft wrote it, this book covers it.

Security. Protect your PC from viruses, spyware, spam, phishing scams, sick hard drives, and out-of-control kids

The network. Homegroups, connecting from the road, mail, Web, music streaming among PCs—this book has your network covered.

The software. Media Center, Photo Gallery, Internet Explorer, Windows Live services, speech recognition.

This jargon-free book explains Windows 7 features so clearly – revealing which work well and which don’t – that it should have been in the box in the first place.
