You know all that jargon that computer people use all the time? The words that make no sense, the abbrevations... or phrases where each word makes sense, but together it just seems nonsense?
Well, you can finally wave that goodbye.
This pocket dictionary translates all the jargon, abbreviations and phrases into plain English. It has explanations that tell you what each phrase means in simple language. It doesn’t define the words in a technnical way, like you might get from an “expert” – it just explains what you need to know.
Only £4.99 + 77p P&P
Some of the terms that are covered:

- “Default” doesn’t mean the same as in normal language... here’s what the techies mean by it.

- Firewall and Firewire sound similar, but they’re totally different things... and only one of them is important to most people.
- DIMM – it doesn’t just mean a bit thick!
- Beware of Trojans. Why?
Since it’s pocket sized, you can take the book with you when you go shopping for computer stuff. In some shops the assistants don’t even know what the writing on the boxes means, but with this book, you’ll be able to tell them!
