There are currently far more NT Servers than NT Workstation users. However, corporations are often making the choice to bypass Windows 95 and distribute NT to their end users--making NT Workstation the fastest growing segment of the NT market. This book includes coverage of all the topics that Windows NT Workstation users need to know, including the Windows NT interface, architectural details, networking, troubleshooting, security, OLE, and Internet issues.<p></p><p><b>Amazon.com Review  With dry humor and clear competence that will appeal to  skilled users, John Paul Mueller walks the reader through Windows NT  Workstation 4.0 basics. He then gets right into the details of how  Windows NT deals with memory, accesses data on disk, writes visual  information to the screen, and performs a score of other low-level  tasks. You'll find outstanding coverage of both peer-to-peer and  client-server networking. But perhaps the most useful section is in  the second half of the book, where Mueller details performance tweaks  for both hardware and software. "Peter's Principle"  sidebars throughout give useful power-user tips, such as making a  shortcut to your Startup folder so you can fill it at quitting time  with whatever you want to have open when you start your computer  again. The book does not include a CD-ROM but there is a useful  four-page pull-out command reference. <i>Peter Norton's Complete Guide  to Windows NT 4 Workstation, Premier Edition</i>, doesn't aim to  provide the detailed information that some other administrators'  references offer, but it is a fine choice for knowledgeable users who  want to tune their computers for speedy and smart operation.</b></p>
