After using the Apple OS operating system for the last 10 years I purchased this book since I'm required to use Windows 8 for my contract work. I thought it would help me ease back into use of the new Windows operating system. Let me just say I was most disappointed in this book. A number of chapters including those chapters covering the email application playing music and other media are very much out of date. My Windows 8 looked very different that how Mr. McFedries noted and demonstrated. Either Windows 8 was modified after this book was written or the author is using a completely different verion of Window 8 that came with my new Dell Ultrabook purchased almost two weeks ago. I would not recommend it based on my experience.
