Hi. Regarding Windows tutorials, I highly recommend Christa Earl's
"Speaking of" series. If I have misspelled her name, then I apologize.
She has produced some wonderful tutorials: Windows 95, the Internet,
Microsoft Word, etc. I admit that by the time I purchased them I was
already comfortable with Windows, and so I can't comment on them from the
perspective of a new Windows user, but I think they'll be fine for most
people. They're in the $75 range but are worth it. They usually are in
six tapes, not four-track, which is nice since I can pop them into my
stereo tape player. She is relaxed but yet has a playful side to her so
that you'll learn what she's telling you without, hopefully, feeling stress
or pressure. GW Micro, producer of the Window-eyes screen reader, sells
them, and I know other vendors offer them as well.
