Alan Simpson’s Windows XP Bible
Alan Simpson’s Windows XP Bible
Wiley; 2 edition | ISBN: 0764578154 | 1200 pages | February 18, 2005 | PDF | 22 Mb
Comprehensive in its treatment of Microsoft’s latest and greatest operating system for the masses, Alan Simpson’s Windows XP Bible has an answer to most “How do I…” questions that are likely to arise in the minds of Windows XP users, particularly those who aren’t too familiar with recent versions of Windows. If you’re going to buy a Windows XP reference book for your office, this would be a good choice. The author–the respected Alan Simpson, who’s put out similarly comprehensive books before–must have incredible patience, because he manages to document almost every Windows procedure down to the last option and the final “OK” click. Most people won’t need this level of handholding–almost everyone has gained knowledge of the basic Windows conventions by now–and perhaps this book could have been more compact (as it is, it’s pretty hefty) or contained more obscure details without it. But don’t accuse Simpson of neglecting details.

SketchUp 5. The BOOK
Bonnie Roskes, Bob deWitt, “The SketchUp BOOK”
Conceptual Product Development, Inc. | ISBN: N/A | 2005 | PDF | 490 pages | 31.7MB
Changing the way you think in 3D, from concept to model.
While SketchUp has one of the most user-friendly interfaces on the market today, there are still some things users need a little help with. The program’s online help and the video tutorials on SketchUp’s website are gems of information, but most people don’t learn easily from watching a movie. I’ve taken most of the basic information from these tutorials and put them into printed form, for those who like to work alongside text.
