Best for new users, fine for all users  August 4, 2011

All beginning Mac users should start with this textbook. It's written in real English, not computerese. When you finish "The Little Mac Book" you know what all those terms and icons mean -- and you have had practice in the basics of surfing the web, word processing, and doing e-mail. I can't say enough good things about this textbook!






The Little Mac Book, Snow Leopard Edition: 5 out of 5 stars based on 1 user reviews.
