Out of date
This book would be adequate only for an entry level user of the original ibook. It is not applicable to todays ibooks. It does not contain information about iphoto, itunes, imovie, OS X, or Jaguar. It does not help with topics related to CD burning, using a digital cameras with your ibook, or playing DVD's on your ibook. A person purchasing a new ibook would want a more current book.

Stuff I'd never have figured out on my own...
Having been a PC person all my life, I had absolutely no experience with the Macintosh until I purchased an ibook. This book was beyond helpful in teaching me what I needed to know! Not only is David Pogue full of helpful information, he's hysterical to read. I never thought I'd laugh while reading a computer manual, that's for sure. The book held my hand and walked me through setups, included software, troubleshooting, finding accessories, and ridding my hard drive of unnecessary programs to free up disk space. I'd give it an A+.

A fun filled learning expierience
This book really helped me in the getting aquainted with my new iBook. Let's face it, I am no computer genius, but now I at least understand the basic computing skills I need. Hey, it helped me get onto this website, so it taught me something. Pogue doesn't doesn't just spit techno-babble at you, he teaches you how to do the tasks required. My personal favorite part of the book are the great cartoons at the beginning of each section.
