You took the plunge, paid extra, and―even though it looks and feels like perfection―have that fleeting doubt: is my MacBook really worth the investment? You’ll be pleased to know that the answer is totally yes, and MacBook For Dummies is the ultimate way to learn the thousand and one reasons why the MacBook Pro or Air you now own is a modern masterpiece―as well as the ten thousand and one (and counting) things you can do with it. With its super-smooth performance, top-shelf LED screen, rugged reliability, and powerful, trouble-free operating system, you’re going to have a lot of fun.

Then, with the basics reassuringly in place, you can begin your journey to power-user mastery in whatever areas of MacBook-ing you’re most interested in, from doing the accounts in Numbers to perfecting that soon-to-be-released cinematic classic (with original score) using iMovie and GarageBand.

This is not for dummies. If you are a PC user going to MAC (as if) then you need something easier. Bought it for my Wife who works in IT and she is struggling and she is intelligent.

by Amazon Customer
Bought this thinking it would be easy to learn how to use my new Mac oh how wrong I was.
Purchased another product from WH Smith which was much easier to use and follow.
Didn’t return as didn’t start trying to using it until 3 weeks after purchasing.

Very handy to have

As a beginner to Mac, I had hoped the book would guide me though basic initial operation. The book did nothing and was totally a waste of money for any beginner
by Terry Hanson
Good on basics, but not enough detail.
