 Excellent system guide! November 16, 2008
G. Wylie (Scottish Highlands)
Any Mac owner operating their computer using Leopard should have this extremely helpful, floppy volume readily to hand. It takes you effortlessly through the basics, constantly surprises you by revealing information you never suspected is available to you just beneath the surface, provides countless hints and tips to get the most from the system and is a great friend to have in times of need. br / br /
Really excellent. Clear and interesting. August 2, 2008

Yeah this is awesome. It can't be easy to make an instruction manual for an operating system interesting, but the author does it somehow. And the detail is great. I've been able to tell experienced MAC OS users a thing or two from having read this book. Recommended.
A must buy for any mac owner June 25, 2008

Having recently taken the plunge to buy my first Mac computer, although the operating system (Leopard) is easy to use, the way of doing things is slightly different. To help me fully migrate, I purchased this book. br / br /This book is a mine of information covering all aspects of the Mac OS, from the very little things like minimising windows to the more complex things like Automation etc. It explains everything in great detail and has lots of screen grabs and illustrations to help. It is clearly laid out and very well indexed, so if you are stuck on an item, you can find the solution rapidly. br / br /This book resides by my computer "just in case" and is highly recommended. br / br /Also, the book is that thick, that you can even use it as a step ladder when not needed.
Great Value!!!!!! May 30, 2008

I bought this as a complete novice to Apple Macs...it's very very informative and in a language that I can understand! I would really recommend this as the information on different aspects of the Leopard platform are endless....Excellent value for money!
Bulky guide but useful April 30, 2008

As a new migrant from Windows XP, I had absolutely no idea how clever the Mac OS X Leopard operating system was until I picked up this book. There are so many hidden features that it takes a serious user manual to ferret them out. Unfortunately, Apple provide just a tiny little white booklet and expect you to spend hours online searching their website for tips. Call me old-fashioned but I prefer hard copy to flicking back and forth between help screens and the work I am doing (even if it is easier with a Mac than a PC). br / br /The step by step instructions are particularly useful to those who are sitting in front of a Mac for the first time. There's also some useful information about third party software which can enhance a Mac further; for example, if the user wants to run Windows alongside Mac OS X on the same computer. There's also advice about customising Leopard as well. br / br /Yes, this is a heavy book and, yes, it does become a little anecdotal in places, but I recommend it to anyone who wants to unleash the full power of Leopard.
