Review: Nostalgia at its best

I have long been a fan of the Dummies series, and this book reminded me of the reason. The first section, the classics, which includes  a chapter on DOS also reminded me why I was first a Mac user. :-) Of course, who could miss peeking in on a chapter from the most famous book of all, given at bridal showers and bachelor parties alike over the years, "Sex For Dummies."This is not intended to be a practical book, rather it is intended as a look back at the twenty years. In the first section, chapters are picked up straight out of the original books, and aren't meant to be stand alone guidance.And yet, while it incorporates the classic, it also includes current, with instructions on Windows 7 as well as DOS.Probably the best part for me was the daily dose of Dummies, with the ten healthy attitudes for living, meditation, and responsibilities of a leader. in fact, those chapters alone make this book worth taking a peek.Nevertheless, i recommend this book for nostalgia lovers, rather than for someone looking for serious advice.
