Hi there
I had no idea that Microsoft offered these deals every year.I am planning on grabbing some myself–especially the windows 10 one—as i have been having a lot of problems lately.Are all their e books geared to computers or are there others as well? Geez where were you a couple months ago?-lol
great job on the post—i will be watching for more-hopefully soon—thanks again
Hi Vic!
I couldn’t have helped you a couple of months ago because this giveaway wasn’t there; I’m not sure about last year’s giveaway, though 🙂
Microsoft giveaway books are only computer oriented, but you can check my post on O’Reilly free books. O’Reilly offers computer books as well as business books and free webinars.
It’s the first I’ve ever heard of the free Microsoft book giveaways. Although the titles are not exciting by any means, they certainly would be useful for reference and technical information on MS products. Exchange Server and the book on the Cloud are probably of most interest to me. Thanks very much for sharing this with us.
Hi, Darren
Glad you liked it. These are mostly technical books, but I’m sure anyone can find something they can fibd useful.
Thanks!
