Bought for my 80-Year-Old Parents by Graphic Queen
This is the book for someone who knows virtually nothing about the MAC OS X Tiger operating system. My father uses it. He is 80 and not computer savvy but it’s helping him may his way using his computer.
Should be Mac OS X Tiger for Beginners ONLY by Glenn G. Young
Really basic stuff. If you’re a complete newcomer to computers AND to Mac OS X, then this should fit fine. If you’re already familiar with Windows, other books are probably better. I don’t regret the purchase, but I’d hoped for a bit more depth.
I was a dummie to buy this by Otomar Hajek
Today, in May 2007, this is completely out of date. Buy the Pogue book.
Mac OS X Tiger For Dummies by coddy2201
Extremely helpful. As a fairly new computer user, I found this book especially helpful because it contains some basic info for the beginner. Most books assume you’re an accomplished user, and go into more advanced issues.I have learned alot from this book.
