Perfect textbook  July 16, 2011

The textbook is very detailed but easy to understand. It explained computer terminology, hardware, software, language, and more in such a way to make sense. But it is a great read for someone who is really interested in computers. Overall to a beginner it was a good well written textbook that you can actually learn from without the aid of lecture.
