Misleading title, trivial book.
4 July 2003
Format:Paperback
The author wrote a fundamental "How-to" book for OSX, only introducing each item as a "problem", e.g." I don't know how to..." or "I want this or that to happen"...
If you are looking for solutions to real headaches, such as the Trash refusing to empty, or error messages infoming you that you lack the privileges to perform an operation, do not look for them in this collection of trivia!
I am sorry to have wasted my money on this book. I am sure even a book entitled "xxxxx for Dummies" would be on a higher level.
