Beyond cutting edge, Scott Mueller goes where no computer book author has gone before--right past all the warranty stickers, the hidden screws, and the fear factor to produce a real owner's manual that every laptop owner should have on his desk. This book shows the upgrades users can perform, the ones that are better left to the manufacturer, and how to use add-on peripherals to make the most of a laptop. The CD contains one-of-a-kind video showing just what's inside a portable PC. For readers who have ever wondered what goes on inside their portable PC, how to upgrade/repair the portable PC or how to live on the road with it, this is the one must-have book of the year.
Web Design Garage is a hands-on guide for Web design and usability. In the spirit of the Garage series, this book doesn't preach to the student or cover ground already well documented in software manuals. Instead, it provides practical, quick solutions to common design and usability problems. - This book includes layout diagrams in addition to graphical Web-page mockups. By comparing the figures, the student learns how to visualize design problems in terms of the underlying layout. Each topic in the book can be read or referenced as a stand alone solution, but cross-references are included where appropriate to foster a nonlinear, browsing feel. These 'links' are helpful for those readers who want to learn more about a particular aspect of the problem.
