Review

Increasingly, new computer users are finding Windows NT Workstation installed on their computers at work. Businesses like the security and networking capabilities of this operating system, but it lacks some of the polish that characterizes Windows 95. Users often find themselves confused by Windows NT's many options and sometimes obtuse approaches to tasks. Using Windows NT Workstation 4 helps unravel some of the most confusing aspects of Windows NT and helps users become more comfortable with this powerful operating system.

Paul Cassel begins with very basic Windows NT skills, such as clicking, dragging, file manipulation, and directory structures--the sort of thing that would trip up a total beginner. From there, he progresses carefully through increasingly difficult skills. He explains how to use Windows NT's built-in Internet applications, how to install software, how to set up a LAN, and how to troubleshoot problems. He even goes into some depth on using the Command Shell and establishing solid security policies.

Throughout, Using Windows NT Workstation 4 attempts to provide a productive mix of numbered procedures and explanatory prose. This combination of formats guarantees that users know both what to do and why, increasing the likelihood that they will be able to solve future problems without help. --David Wall
