aged person's review,

This review is from: Mac Computing for Seniors in Easy Steps (Paperback)
Anyone over the age of fifty who is contemplating the purchase of an Apple desktop or laptop, should purchaseMac Computing for Seniors by Nick Vandome. In fact, In my opinion, Apple should supply this book with all their Mac Minis or iMacs as it is simplicity itself to read and understand.
As a computer illiterate of 80+ years, I found it to be the best operation manual I have so far come across and I commend it highly.

Senior's Review,
By
This review is from: Mac Computing for Seniors in Easy Steps (Paperback)
Contemplating purchase of new computer. Uncertain as to making switch from Windows to an MAC. Have purchased several books in an effort to make a decision. This particular publication, with the use of plain English and large easy to see illustrations, of particular help. Perhaps, will wait for release of Snow Leopard and Windows 7. Both of which I will likely purchase books for clarification.

A Silver Surfer's Apple Macintosh Bible,
By James Johnson "James" (Chelmsford, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mac Computing for Seniors in Easy Steps (Paperback)
Mac Computing for Seniors in Easy Steps
I bought this book for my father on his 72nd birthday today and he couldn't be happier. The wording is clear and precise and in plain English. Nick Vandome's book has opened up his MacBook to even more possiblities than he had before with a new sense of computing enjoyment beyond the drab email and web browsing! A must for any silver surfer on the Apple Macintosh platform.
