Fantastic book. Apple should pack it with all the computers they sell. I wish all user manuals were this friendly. It put me at ease with OSX from the very beginning.


I had a G4 with OSX sitting under my desk for about 2 months and I had dabbled with it. I had read all the comments about UNIX based and ROOT LEVEL and ADMINISTRATOR and all those scarey buzzwords the Techies throw around. Then I got OSX the Missing Manual. Now I feel at ease with the OSX not as scared of the unknown. Yes you don't have to be a "Techie" to use OSX


Thanks for a great book.

"One of the beauties of the Missing Manuals is that there is always something new to discover and the research is quite thorough...I kept finding snippets of information, in the way of Tips or Notes, that would give just that bit extra."
