A Real Time Saver,
By Mattie (Bethalto, IL USA) - See all my reviews
Ce commentaire est de: Mac OS X Conversion Kit: 9 to 10 Side by Side, Jaguar Edition, The (Paperback)
This book is all it claims to be. Concise and easy to use. I received my OS X.2 on a new G4 and after spending several hours trying to just do the everyday things that had become second nature in OS 9, I went to Amazon.com and found this book advertised. It is exactly what I needed to make the conversion. I already had two books on OS 9/OS X but at 1,000 pages each, what I needed either wasn't in there or was buried too deeply to find quickly. If you're converting from OS 9 to OS X, do yourself a favor and order this book at the same time. I can say from experience and without exaggeration, it will save you hours. One thing I disagree with the author on. In "Start Here" of the book, he says "Don't sit down and read it cover to cover." I think he's right and wrong. The tips are easy to find without reading the whole book; but his writing style makes the reading fun and knowing some of the conversion tips before needing them reduced my stress level considerably.
