Product Description:
With so many books out there on Mac OS X Leopard, what makes this one better and different is its focus. While other Leopard books can regularly be 500-plus pages, this book cuts through all the technical jargon and gives you exactly what you want: the most important, most requested, and just plain coolest things about Leopard that will change the way you work on your Mac. With Leopard's newest features, this book will show you how to customize your workspace with Spaces, search and view your files fast with Quick Look, restore any file on your system with Time Machine, and much more. Each page covers just one topic, complete with full-color photos and screenshots, making it easy to find what you're looking for fast.

- Great Resource For Mac OS
I'm a new MacBook user and not especially sophisticated, just email, pictures, internet and some word processing. After years of frustration with PCs I find the Mac a revelation--stable, intuitive and packed with innovative features.

I bought a few books to speed my transition and this is the best one. Each glossy page succinctly describes a separate task or a list of related tips (except for the rather lame chapter introductions). It's great fun to browse and I've learned many things about the OS I wouldn't have otherwise picked up, at least not as quickly.

This comprehensive but pithy guide is for the beginner/intermediate user and highly recommended.

- I've Read Most of the OS X/Leopard Books ... BUY THIS ONE!
I'm a new Mac user. Over the past 6 months, I've read most of the OS X books currently on the market. (I'm a geek that way ;-)

In my opinion, for a new mac user, this books is the best one. Scott writes simply, plainly and uses easy-to-understand terms. (Plus, his pictures are fun to look at!).

If you want to go waaaay under the hood of OS X, then get this book:Mac OS X Leopard: The Missing Manual. If you just want to get up and running quickly, then buy Scott's book.

Thanks, Scott! Keep those great books coming!

Regards,

- Just what a new Mac User Needs!
I recently ordered my first Apple - a MacBook Pro and ordered the OS X Leopard book at the same time. This guide is just what the new Mac user needs. The format of one task to one page makes it a great flip open "quick-start" guide. The book isn't expensive, it's easy to read and navigate, and it's just fun. If you are brand new to the Mac, I can't recommend this book highly enough!

- Mac Newbie
When a 25 year pc user switches to a Mac there is a definite learning curve. This book was a great place to start. I found many of the shortcuts that Mac users already know, but I couldn't find readily listed anywhere on my Mac. Long time users might find this boring, but it was quite helpful to me as a new user. Good screen photos support the hints and tips, so it's very easy to understand. No long boring explanations, just nice short snippets.
