  Most computer documentation is based on the assumption that the computer's owner already knows everything about basic computer operation. The Complete Idiot's Guide (R) to Computer Basics, Third Edition, assumes differently. This book places the reader in charge of the computer, rather than the other way around, and correctly identifies that the reader wants to do something practical with his/her computer but has little knowledge beforehand for doing so. In The Complete Idiot's Guide (R) to Computer Basics, Third Edition, readers benefit from:(1) New information on building a blog and going digital with music, photos, and video.(2) Updates for Windows XP and soon-to-be released Microsoft Office 2003.(3) Step-by-step instructions for backing up data and troubleshooting common problems.(4) The latest information on how to upgrade computers with more powerful components and useful accessories.
