OUTSTANDING! STRONGEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION! December 28, 2008 I'm GLAD I took the time to get/read this book from cover to cover. I went from "n00bie" to having a pretty fair grasp of what's up with my Mac. I'd recommend it to all with no reservations whatsoever (it was positively the BEST book I found on Leopard).
Not that Great October 26, 2008 If you are familiar with computers in general, all the information found on the book are there for free on the internet. Don't waste your money buy this book. There plenty of other choices out there. I was extremely disappointed with this book and it was a waste of money .. Look at alternative before you buy

I recommend this book for anyone new to Leopard, it is very easy to read and understand, plus its offers color diagrams. It's worth the money!
OK for New Users May 5, 2008 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Great book for newbies and kids, but nothing substantial for long-time Mac users needing maintenance and security info. I also found her cutesy writing personality totally annoying. If you want a seriously excellent Mac OSX book, of which there seems very few, go to the consummate expert, David Pogue. He uses humor, gets to the point and help at the same time.
OK but basic info April 23, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is an OK book but I was expecting more! It was very basic and I was looking for a more advanced manual. More on scurity and firewalls etc.
