Product Description

Product Description
The Mac is enjoying an incredible renaissance. Cool design, a rock-solid, stable operating system and ease of use to beat any rival platform have finally come together, attracting more new users than ever before. Some of these will be buying their first computer. Others will be switching from Windows. For both groups, the Mac will be an unfamiliar environment, and they don t have time to slowly build up their knowledge by reading beginners Mac magazines. Regardless of previous experience (of last thereof), The Independent Guide to the Mac will provide them with a friendly crash course getting the most out of their purchase, quickly and with ease. Combining the familiarity of a chunky magazine, the authority of a painstakingly-researched book and the accessibility of dip-in, dip-out primer, The Independent Guide to the Mac will be both a trusted friend.
