What Customers Say About Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard: Peachpit Learning Series:

All the material would enable the user to use most of the Mac functions. The thing that sold me on this guide is the abundance of photo's that accompany the text which makes it very easy to follow. If you're already an advanced windows user David Pogues book would be a better selection but for the rest of us this is a great book. I looked at several different Mac guides before I selected this. I'm a average windows user that's converting to Mac.
I'd recommend it to all with no reservations whatsoever (it was positively the BEST book I found on Leopard). I'm GLAD I took the time to get/read this book from cover to cover. I went from "n00bie" to having a pretty fair grasp of what's up with my Mac.
I was extremely disappointed with this book and it was a waste of money. There plenty of other choices out there. Look at alternative before you buy If you are familiar with computers in general, all the information found on the book are there for free on the internet. Don't waste your money buy this book.
It's worth the money. I recommend this book for anyone new to Leopard, it is very easy to read and understand, plus its offers color diagrams.
He uses humor, gets to the point and help at the same time. If you want a seriously excellent Mac OSX book, of which there seems very few, go to the consummate expert, David Pogue. Great book for newbies and kids, but nothing substantial for long-time Mac users needing maintenance and security info. I also found her cutesy writing personality totally annoying.
