Description

Mac OS X Leopard is the new cat in town, and wait until you see all the tricks it can do! Whether you're new to the Mac or a long time Mac-thusiast, "Mac OS X Leopard For Dummies" is the fun and friendly way to have your Leopard purring in no time. While the Mac has built its reputation in part on being user-friendly, OS X Leopard has lots of features that do lots of things - and that's where "Mac OS X Leopard For Dummies" puts you a step ahead. If you're meeting your first Mac, start at the beginning and you'll feel like a pro in no time. If you're familiar with earlier incarnations of OS X, you can jump right to the chapters on organizing your files and getting a sneak peek with Quick Look, backing up with the cool new Time Machine, using Spaces to manage Finder and application windows, and getting down with all the cool Mac multimedia features.
