Customer Reviews

Great book for new OSX users.

If you are Mac user new to OS X, this is a perfect book for you. Actually, if you just bought a new mac, and have no experience with a Mac whatsoever, this book is for you too. It's got a nice little overview of the technical components of the new mac os, how classic is used within it, and then goes over every section piece by piece(Applications, Networking, File system, Customization, Security, Troubleshooting, etc). It even gets into some of the more technical aspects of OS X such as Java and a list of UNIX commands and what they do. This is definitely not a book for expert users, but overall, it's a great book for an introduction to OS X.
