Getting to Know
Windows 98
This chapter introduces Windows 98 by guiding you through a
few basic tasks. It also shows you some of the new screens you
can expect to see when you open basic applications of
Windows 98.
If you've never used Windows 98 before, the skill and confidence
you gain will more than offset the short amount of time you spend
going through these lessons. However, if you've used Windows 95
or Macintosh, you will already have some familiarity with Win
dows 98, since the operating systems are similar.
HINT: If you've been using Windows 3.1, Windows 98 Help
discusses a number of the major differences in an easy ques-
tion-and-answer format. To start online help, open the Start
menu and select Help. When the Help Topics: Windows Help
screen appears, select the Index tab. Type "upgrading" in the
text box, then in the topics list double-click "Upgrading to
Windows 98 from Windows 31."
As you gain experience with Windows 98, you will discover that
there are often many ways of accomplishing a particular task.
