As the computer revolution explodes into our lives, it's comforting to know there's palace to look for the answers to the practical questions you didn't want to admit you had. Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Computers...but were afraid to ask is that place and host John Wood is the per- son who answers the most frequently asked questions about everything from how to choose a computer to software and peripherals. Interwoven with Wood’s explanations and advice is the story of a family buying its first computer.
