    Quick Reference Guides

    When I turn a Vista PC over to one of our users, I would like to give them a
    quick reference guide. While I plan to have some training sessions, when
    actually faced with Vista for the first time, it can be a little
    overwhelming, espieically for the ones who are not too good with PC's to
    begin with. I was thinging that if I could give them a quicl reference guide
    that tells them how to do the basics in Vista that they use in XP all the
    time, that might help. Does anyone know of a book or whitepaper that might
    help me with this? Other ideas for wasing the transition for my users?

    All you have to do is tell a new user to click on the Vista blue start
    button and then click on "Help and Support". Next, have the user click
    on the topic titled "What's new?". There are many excellent tutorials
    offered, including detailed tutorial videos.
