Summary: good voiume for the beginner in iMac
Comment: An excellent book for the beginner in the use of Macs. Language is clear and avoids the use of computer jargon. Not too detailed so as to lose the beginner in the intricacies of computer operation.

Summary: I haven't had my Mac for long, but this book will really help.
Comment: I've owned a PC for years and wanted to know what people were doing on their Macs. This book was recomended to answer all my questions.

Summary: easy to read
Comment: easy to read and understand. Its like your sitting right next to a REAL person teaching you about MAC use. However, it would be good if there was more info on the "tricks" of for instance transfering data from your PC or transfering songs from a ipod (that was pc formatted) into your mac. Then again, that could be a whole new book. This is the nuts and bolts of operating a mac. Pretty good and served its purpose anyway.
