This Book is a Must!

I switched from a desktop running Windows to a MacBook the day after Thanksgiving. Although I do have 3 software engineers in the family (2 at Google and 1 at Microsoft) they got my new toy all set up, transferred my files and promptly left me to return to their techie lives in Seattle. I could continually bombard them with questions via email and phone (they wouldn't mind.... really!) but I decided it would just be more practical to have a Dummies book on hand so I don't look quite so dimwitted when I need the answer to the same question a second or third or fourth time. Thus, I find myself reading "Switching To A Mac For Dummies". It really helps. The book is very clear and also quite entertaining. I've laughed out loud more than once. Oh yeah, and I'm learning stuff, too.

Great Book for New Mac Users

I was a Microsoft PC user for over 15 years and I recently decided to buy an IMAC. With the new ITouch and new IPhone out, I wanted to combine that with a Mac Machine so that everything can work together easily.

This book gave me a great start to understanding a Mac. Even though I'm good with computers and most of the information I already knew just from playing around with a Mac, the book did give me useful shortcuts and great inside information.

Like other "Dummies" books, this was very easy to understand!

Mac for dummies book

This book is very helpful. I wish that this book came in the box with the I-Mac computer. After useing a PC for most my life switching to a MAC can be intimidating. But the book has been very useful.

Mac Rules

I started on an Apple-IIc back in 1987,
but had to switch to PC bc of work.
Have had to hassle with MS through
Windows 95, 97, Millennium, XP and then ugh,
the hell with Vista.
I LOVE MY MAC.
Even Windows XP runs better on my Mac
than it did on my Toshiba.
Anyway . . .
this book was great in helping me figure
things out on the Mac.
PS,
if you want to use XP on your Mac
I recommend downloading the trial version
of Parallels from their website.
The disk sent with my Mac was out of date
for the Leopard, but the downloaded version
of Parallels runs perfect.
The best of both worlds.
Awesome.
