Very well written (4/4 people found this helpful)
I bought this with my computer (sorry Amazon). Anyway; I've bought a few PC technical books in the past and found them tough going, I actually found myself enjoying reading this book; I will look out for other titles written by David Pogue.
As a side note it was a good job I did buy this book as you get no manual to speak of with a new i-mac
Fantastic book (8/8 people found this helpful)
I haven't finished this book yet, as I have only just "switched" from PC to iMac. However, the style is great, with just enough humour to make it an enjoyable read. The text is clear and concise, the diagrams useful, and the subject matter comprehensive.
My only word of caution, is that once you have "switched" you might find the Mac OS X Missing Manual is even more useful. Of course if money is no object, buy both!
Anyway, I am a wholehearted convert to the Missing Manual series now - I believe they are the best books in their genre.
