BYTES Back is packed with
hundreds of lavish, painstakingly drawn illustrations that clearly show the important
points of each topic. Be warned! This is not your classical, computer book. In addition to the superbly presented technical content, you'll find a treasure trove of interesting and enlightening nuggets of trivia. |
| Included with the book is a CD-ROM (for Windows 95) containing the innovative Beboputer™ -- a fully functional Virtual Computer for which you will lean to write and run programs using virtual devices like a keyboard, a computer monitor, switches, and light displays. Plus there are a wealth of tools like assemblers and character editors to help you write programs such as the maze-solver shown below. | |
| The Beboputer
is used in a series of interactive
step-by-step exercises described in the book. Each exercise has been meticulously hand-crafted to provide a unique and enjoyable learning experience. The end result is an in-depth understanding of computer concepts. Ideal for ages 16 to 99! |
 |
| As a bonus, each of the exercises is accompanied by a multimedia video introduction. In fact the CD-ROM contains over 200 megabytes of studio-generated multimedia content alone! If you want to understand how computers are designed, how they work, what they do, and how they do it, then you really need this book. | |
|
|
| As one Bebop fan says: "If you are interested in learning computers at the digital logic level, the micro-programming level, the conventional machine level, and the assembly language level, but want to have fun doing it, then this is the book for you!" | |
