If you bought a shiny new Mac lately or planning to buy one this Christmas, it’s likely got the new Mac OS X Leopard operating system. It’s a bit more complex than the last, in the sense that it packs even more power and a lot more features. You need a manual for that.
Mac OS X Leopard: The Missing Manual by David Pogue covers the operating system in a manner that’s fun to read and authoritative at the same time. David is a New York Times technology columnist who also regularly appears on CBS News Sunday Morning to talk about his latest tech exploits.
Which new Leopard features work well and which do not? What should you look for? What should you avoid? Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition offers objective and straightforward instruction.
It’s for Mac users of all technical levels and experience. Whether you’re new to the Mac or an old Apple user, this book gives you a crystal-clear, jargon-free introduction to the Dock, the Mac OS X folder structure, and the Mail application. There are also mini-manuals on iLife applications such as iMovie, iDVD, and iPhoto, and a tutorial for Safari, Mac’s web browser.
