Mac OS X: The Missing Manual

Book cover

Mom, I sent you a copy of Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Panther edition. It should arrive in about a week.

As far as manuals go, it's a real page turner. But then I'm the kind of person who would sit down with a nice cup of tea and start reading from the beginning to the end. You may not find it gripping enough for that. If not, it will be a good reference book to turn to when you want to find out how to do something in particular.

I hesitated to send this because the next major update of Mac OS X 10.4, a.k.a. Tiger, will be out any week now. However, the Tiger edition of the Missing Manual apparently won't be out until the summer, which seems a long time to go without any book help. "Panther," in the title of the book refers to OS X 10.3, which is what you are currently using. And "OS" obviously stands for "Operating System" ;-)

Hi Brad,
