Book Reviews of iMac For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))

Book Review: Big waste of time and $$$$
Summary: 1 Stars

Utterly useless! This thing reads like an add for Apple! Have just switched from a PC to an iMac, I thought this book would be useful - it is not. Difficult to use and never gets to the point. All hype and no substance. Very little useful info in a rather fat book.
