Microsoft Press Introduces Field Guides to MS-DOS 6.2 and Windows 3.1

In the office or on the road, everyone needs ready information at their
fingertips. Now all the information you need about the MS-DOS operating
system and Windows 3.1 is available in two quick and easy guides from
Microsoft Press, FIELD GUIDE TO MS-DOS 6.2 and FIELD GUIDE TO WINDOWS
3.1.

Inspired by traditional field guide identification handbooks to flora,
fauna, and insect life, these colorful, easy-to-use, go-anywhere computing
guides offer quick, reliable answers in a convenient package. For new
users, they provide a visual path to finding the essential information
necessary to start using MS-DOS and Windows 3.1. For experienced users,
Field Guides provide concise, easy-to-find descriptions of tasks, terms,
and techniques. They organize information visually with numerous
illustrations, and provide lightning quick answers with a colorful touch.

One of the many elements that make the books so attractive to new and
experienced users alike is the "Tipmeister"--the computing expert in
safari gear--who leads readers through the guides and points out valuable
tips to help them work smarter and faster. Screen illustrations show how
the readers' screens should look. Step-by-step instructions help users
accomplish exactly when they want to do. Alphabetic entries and rich
cross-referencing make it easy to find information. There's even a special
troubleshooting section to help readers pull themselves out of tight
spots.

Field Guides are ideal for quick and easy lookups at home, in the office,
or on the road. Their convenient size and handy organization make it easy
to find answers right away--without having to wade through a much larger
text. On the road, Field Guides are designed to slip easily into a
briefcase or next to a laptop, ready to consult at a moment's notice.
