Mac OS X Snow Leopard in Easy Steps [平裝]

Apple's OS X Snow Leopard is one powerful cat. The latest Mac operating system is faster, more streamlined and more efficient than any of its predecessors. However, for both Mac fans and new users, it can be downright scary. It's time to tame the Snow Leopard.

Mac OS X Snow Leopard In Easy Steps opens the gateway to the foundations of Snow Leopard: the Dock and the Finder. It also covers innovative features such as the invaluable backup program Time Machine, the organizational tool Spaces, and the file-viewing feature Covers. There's even a chapter on MobileMe!
