Hey if any of you are even thinking about this, I am throwing in my support for the Take COntrol books. You will not regret spending your money on any of these titles. Even if I am familiar with the topic, I have found information useful to me. THe books are all written in a way that makes them easy to understand, pleasant to read, and keeps your attention. Obviously everyone learns differently, but I think most users will appreciate the books. And hey you cannot beat the price at 50% off. So, go check it out and for the record I am not affiliated with the company or any authors. My comments are my own and all that good stuff. Thanks for sharing Esther.
