Don't Listen to Armchair Critics
I was really surprised to read a couple of reviews here making absolutely false attacks about this book. A recent one claims there's little more here than in the tiny guide Apple provides. Don't believe it! The Mac OS X Little Black Book tells you how to use each and every preference panel. The Apple guide doesn't. This book tells you how to make Classic work reliably. The Apple guide doesn't. This book tells you how to reinstall Mac OS X without erasing your drive. The Apple guide doesn't. And on and on. I enjoyed this book, because it provides solid information and doesn't just provide material for amusement as some other books (like that "Lost," which is really "Missing Manual" tries to do). I highly recommend Mr. Steinberg's book.

Boring!
This has to be the ultimate in "worst" Mac Books. It is nothing more than a repetition of the booklet that comes with the OS, more wordy but no more helpful. I subsequently bought the OS X in the "Lost Manual" series (also available on Amazon) and it was like night and day. Don't waste your money on this one like I did.
