Customer Reviews & Comments I purchased this book when I went to Snow Leopard from Tiger and it is a great book for the beginner and someone upgrading from an earlier version of Mac. Great illustrations and step by step on how it is done. I would recommend this book for the beginner and casual user that is upgrading.
