This is a good book--though a little outdated now. It does a good job of showing how Firefox actually works. It is not just a collection of about:config tweaks. It teaches a user how to create themes extensions and troubleshoot Firefox issues. Something a lot of Firefox users don't know how to do.

This was actually pretty good.... Saved me some time. There was more in there than just the usual pipelining tweaks and such! They even included some freeware to get you started but the other conversion instructions and how to optimize XP, disc and memory caching were pretty good and as they said written for NON Geeks..! All in one place. For the Non Geek types this is good. If you are a computer geek you probably already know a lot of this stuff. Sort of like a basic guide for tunining firefox.

Unlike you geeks, some people don't spend 60 hours a week on the internet searching for this crap. Paying 10 dollars for a book is like paying to have more free time. Its not exploiting anyone, its just how the economy works.

The issue is conning any of the masses into buying crap, ignorance is not to be exploited by any means. Why pay for something rather than open your mind to new possibilities? Those that say otherwise are just trying to line their pockets.

hi -- The guide which was reviewed contains value to some users (perhaps not yourself) and the user decides to purchase or not based on the value of the contents and it's intented objective to enhance his or hers browser performance. You know like "Pro Choice". You don't have to buy anything you don't want to buy. (See the Amazon books associated with the review. You don't have to buy those either.) If spending a few bucks helps get you increased browser performance from changes that have been consolidated and organized in one place for the user then what is the issue?

I must say that I'm more partial to Apple's Safari and the Opera browser.
