How to Do Everything with Your iMac

I have had my Indigo iMac for 1 1/2 years now. I boughtseveral beginner books, being a computer 'newbie'.This book is so fantastic (it's big), but even if you don'thave time to read it cover-to-cover, you can jump into any section you want to learn about, and you will neverfeel frustrated learning to use the computer. It is fantastic,everything concise, clear, and above all the MOST comprehensive iMac manual I have found! A must have,just amazing. It's got it all!

I bought this book 2 days after purchasing my IMac, and boy was it helpful! It takes you through all the steps you need to REALLY get your machine up and running! This is a must have for people who are new to the Mac and work on PCs mostly.

I recently travelled back to the US to help my Dad get set-up with an iMac. While he loved the simplicity of the system, he did miss not having printed material to ponder (and no amount of "but we're saving the trees" would suffice). After an hour pouring over iMac books at Borders we chose this one (of course it's cheaper here!) because of it's thouroghness in covering the additional software included with the iMac. It has the best, most complete coverage of AppleWorks and Quicken of any book out there, as well as complete system coverage, setup information and and how to use the Internet with Navigator. I went back to Holland knowing my Dad can now figure anything out...excellent reference, buy this one!

I almost bought an iMac but went with a PC instead. I bought AppleWorks for Windows and an AppleWorks book by C. Ann Brown (don't waste your money on the book). I picked up Stauffer's iMac book at the library and I found it to be really comprehensive. There is a large section on AppleWorks. Some iMac books are sort of cutesy, but Stauffer's book shows you how to actually do something with your computer besides changing how your iMac looks and sounds. Why did I read an iMac book when I own a PC? I have found that books on Macs are written better than books for PC's. Try Maria Langer's book on Mac OS 8.5 too. Macs and iMacs for Dummies are good sources too.

I bought an IMac and needed some kind of hard copy to go with it. I purchased five other books before this one. If only I had known about this book first I could have saved a lot of money. This is the only book you IMac devotees will need. It has everything, including info on Kai's Photo Soap which no one else has. The title How to do Everything is very apt. But everything should be in great big letters because it is EVERYTHING.
