The Computer Glossary: The Complete Illustrated Desk Reference - Softcover
The reference of choice for both industry experts and lost-in-the-lingo novices. More a mini-encyclopedia than a dictionary, it provides over 3,500 definitions of computer terms, including the proper names of specific products and companies, along with 400 photos and drawings that make concepts crystal clear.

Review:
The seventh edition is substantially expanded with over 6,000 computer terms. This dictionary covers basic computer vocabulary, graphics and multimedia terminology, and a sampling of cyberslang and Internet terms, plus programming, networking, UNIX, and PC jargon. Profiles on industry leaders and historic happenings make this glossary interesting as well as useful. Definitions are tailored to the type of word. Basic terms are defined in layman's language while the specific technical jargon is defined with more technical terms. Comprehensive cross-referencing gives you quick access to what you're looking for.
