The Plain English Repair and Maintenance Guide for Home Computers is a practical, non-technical guide designed to help home computer owners understand, maintain, and repair their personal computers without needing advanced technical background. Written in clear, accessible language, the book explains how computers work, how to diagnose common problems, and how to perform basic repairs and preventive maintenance on hardware and peripherals. It serves as a useful reference for early PC users in the 1980s, when personal computing was becoming widespread and support resources were limited.
