I've got old Mac books that start at that level. I was hoping to find something specific to Windows to avoid ANY confusion. Maybe something for Windows 98 would do? It uses the same interface.

Most of the "for dummies" books are pretty good for this kind of thing.

Sorry to be so very far off topic, but there are some very knowledgeable folks on this list. We just gave my 77 year old mother-in-law her first computer. It is running Windows 2000 (because that's what I had to load). I need to find her a really, really basic computer book, a book for someone who has never touched a computer before. The book needs to start with "this is a window," "this is how you close a window," "this is how you move a window," "this is how handle more than one window on the screen," etc. Can someone recommend a good book for windows that starts at that basic a level?
To bring this back to topic a little bit, once I get her up to speed on basic computer skills, I'll try to convert her to Linux.
Thanks!
Andrew Robinson
