Book Reviews of Mac OS X Tiger: Missing Manual
Book Review: good overview of the mac system
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I switched from Windows to iMac I was looking for a book the gives me an overview over the system. This book does an excellent job in doing so. It covers everything you need to know goes into some detail, but not too deep (which also would not be possible in a book like this, otherwise it would be thousands of pages long).
I can really recommend this book for people who switch or beginners.
Book Review: Great! Bought 3 of these!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book! I switched from a PC and this book helped me get to really enjoy my new Mac. I feel like an expert now! I'm even giving lessons and tips to friends and relatives! One of my "students" who didn't really like her new Mac BEFORE, loves it NOW!
The book is quite long, but it has a good index and is not the type of book that has to be read cover to cover anyway.
Book Review: Very informative and surprisingly thick - a brick of a book
Summary: 5 Stars
With the flimsy manuals you get with the Mac, I thought it was going to be a much smaller book. Very thorough and informative, even if you thought Mac interface was intuitive. I really like the tip and note sections with all the nice,juicy information about little obscure functions that will save time and give access to places you had to burrow for. Definitely a book to recommend.Book Review: terrific resource - especially for the pc to mac switch
Summary: 5 Stars
pogue always does a fine job and this book is no exception. i used the os 10.1 version for many years. i recently got the os 10.4 version and find it to be even more comprehensive. i bought a second copy for my daughter who is switching from windows xp to mac osx.
there may be better books for the mac technophiles, but for regular users, this is the best choice.
Book Review: Just the ticket for a PC refugee
Summary: 5 Stars
Having not used a Mac in over 20 years, I chose this book to update me with all the latest info to use OSX Tiger. Not one to like reading off a computer screen (yes, kill a tree for me), I prefer to have a good, solid manual I can wrap my hands around and I'm really glad I chose this hefty tome. It has become the go-to source for all things OSX for me! Highly recommended!
