I wanted to like this, I really did. It's just.. well, it's just that there's almost nothing here that you wouldn't find in the stuff packed with your Apple computer.
A reviewer at Amazon suggests that this might be good for new users and Windows switchers - I'm not convinced it has any value for them, either. Nor is it particularly valuable as a "remind me how I do.." book.
Darn. I don't like negative reviews, but this isn't worth even buying to give to someone new to Macs. O'Reilly seldom flops, but they did this time.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them.
I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.
