Awesome !Very vital to becoming computer literate !!!

I have been reading Aubrey Pilgrim's Save a Bundle series for some time (How to Build a PC and Save a Bundle to this one!) now... It has helped me to understand PC's, not to be "afraid" of them, and to pursue a career in working with them.. I also got his Build your Own Lan and Save a Bundle! Extremely good advice with cautions where needed! I go to his books when I want to make upgrades or even considering whether to really purchase a new PC screamer or upgrade my BABY! (smile) Aubrey-you are doing the WORLD a great service!!! Can you put out a book on how to build a Server and Save a Bundle? I would be the FIRST in LINE!!!! This review about this book comes with my HIGHEST recommendation!!!

One of the best guides I've ever read.

Build your own Pentium Processor PC is probably one of the best guides in PC asssembly I have ever read. I am a novice at building PCs, even though I've been using one for years. I learned all the fundimentals from this book and I would highly recommend it to all beginners, interested in saving a bundle.
