 Leopard manual February 8, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This manual seems thorough and well written, full of information, but a problem seems to be that when you come down to details, they're hard to find. Maybe a problem with all manuals, not just David Pogue. For example, as a new Mac user, I have trouble figuring out how to delete things, and how to change their names without re-saving, and haven't found help here. There is also no mention of Office for Mac, which surely most Leopard users use, and where these details are especially important.
 Don't be a Dummie and Buy It January 20, 2008

I am a first time Mac owner, and I thought this would be just what I needed. IF the author spent less time on being cute, and more on being informative, it might work. There were so many things that were barely touched on including "Mail" that if you are a first time Mac user this book does little to make you feel comfortable with it. Spend a few more dollars and get the "The Missing Manual Leopard Edition. David Pogue takes up almost 900 pages to explain what you need to know as opposed to "Dummies" 450 pages.
Dissappointing January 10, 2008

I was hoping for a comprehensive "how to" guide. This just scratches the surface and doesn't dig down to many of the options available in detail enough to be able to use them. It barely even touched making podcasts in garageband for instance. I will be looking for something else. For an overview, it might be fine----just not in detail----sorry.
 great read! December 11, 2007

I think this is a wonderful book. It helped me a lot since I am new to Apple products and their operating system. I recently bought a Mac Book Pro, and with the help of this publication, I have been able to enjoy my Mac. Id like to see one where it details on how to set up a home network step by step. Sorry if Im asking to much. Great buy!
