Mac OS X Snow Leopard: The Missing Manual Review

I love the Missing Manual series by David Pogue and have been waiting for the release of this version.

As with all of the Missing Manuals, this book is very well arranged and readable.You needn't be a complete techie to enjoy Pogue's writing style and the index and appendices are very helpful in locating exactly what you need.

Snow Leopard brings about little tweaks in Apple's newest OS and this Missing Manual explores them.The changes are not large changes, but they are there.I sold my Leopard copy and upgraded my Mac and book to Snow Leopard.Do you need this copy of the missing manual if you already own David Pogue's Mac OS X Leopard: The Missing Manual?Probably not unless you really like to get underneath the hood.If you are starting afresh with the new OS version, this new copy is the way to go.If you own the Leopard version of Pogue's book already and you only use it for an occasional reference here and there, you will probably do just fine.All in all, dollars very well spent.

Product Description:

For a company that promised to "put a pause on new features," Apple sure has been busy-there's barely a feature left untouched in Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard." There's more speed, more polish, more refinement-but still no manual. Fortunately, David Pogue is back, with the humor and expertise that have made this the #1 bestselling Mac book for eight years straight. You get all the answers with jargon-free introductions to:

Big-ticket changes. A 64-bit overhaul. Faster everything. A rewritten Finder. Microsoft Exchange compatibility. All-new QuickTime Player. If Apple wrote it, this book covers it.
Snow Leopard Spots. This book demystifies the hundreds of smaller enhancements, too, in all 50 programs that come with the Mac: Safari, Mail, iChat, Preview, Time Machine.
Shortcuts. This must be the tippiest, trickiest Mac book ever written. Undocumented surprises await on every page.
Power usage. Security, networking, build-your-own Services, file sharing with Windows, even Mac OS X's Unix chassis-this one witty, expert guide makes it all crystal clear.
