Customer Reviews

Good investment

Very well-written and easy to use. Great reference tool. Loaned to a friend who also decided to purchase this book .Could not be more pleased.

Book worth getting.

The book arrived earlier than expected. It looked like new. The information in the Mac book was VERY HELPFUL in solving some of the questions I had about operating my MacBook Pro. The book is easy to read and understand the instructions.

Must have for MAC beginners like me!

If you're new to MACs (or not!) and just need basic info, this is your book. The MAC tutorials are great, but the book allows you to search for specific info quickly.

Good info on Macs

Helped a lot when I first got my Mac (Apple) computer.... Easy to find an answer when needed.

I love Ed Baig's columns

I read Baig every Thursday in USA TODAY. Love his take on gadgets and gizmos--he has a cool podcast on iTunes too. Can't wait to read the book.
