[Bob · Rating 2 out of 5]

A good beginner's book, but if you're looking for something meaty to help you understand the intricacies of Winforms programming in C#, look elsewhere.

Also annoying to see copyright notices for every line of code. Copyrighting "hello, world"? Really? Shouldn't that be in the public domain, Charles?
