This book builds on the huge success of "Laptops For Dummies", now in its second edition. Eight minibooks comprising nearly 850 pages give laptop owners the detailed information and advice they need to make the most of their computers. It offers focused content for new and intermediate laptop users, covering laptop basics and beyond, from synchronizing information with a desktop PC and coordinating e mail between two computers to accessing the Internet or a desktop computer remotely. The minibooks include laptop basics, software for laptops, accessories to go, traveling with a laptop, security, networking a laptop, sources of power, and upgrading a laptop. Sales of laptops continue to outpace sales of desktop PCs, with retail laptop sales up 24 percent in the 2006 holiday season.
