So you're finally ready to find out what all the fuss is about. Whether you're
switching from Windows or upgrading from an older Mac OS, this task-based guide
represents the surest way to go from 0 to 60 in no time flat with Apple's much
anticipated Mac OS X Tiger--more mature, powerfully enhanced, and with more than
200 new features that will knock your socks off. In this thoroughly revised bestseller,
Maria Langer walks readers through the process of installing and configuring Tiger,
then introduces the Mac OS desktop, including the Dock and the Sidebar, before
moving on to more advanced Finder techniques, application basics, printing and
faxing, connecting to the Internet, account management, configuring your Mac for
multiple users, and more. Weighing in at over 700 pages, this new edition also
offers plenty of coverage on what's new in Mac OS X Tiger, including Spotlight,
the search tool that helps you find anything on your Mac instantly; multi-way
video in iChat AV; the enhanced Mail application; Automator, which lets you automate
repetitive manual tasks; Tiger's ultra-useful mini-applications (known as "Dashboard
Widgets"); and more. Rounded out with plenty of tips, tricks, and sage advice,
this book is equally useful for Macintosh novices as well as early adopters looking
for a comprehensive reference on what's new in this much-talked-about Mac OS upgrade.
