Reader Reviews
Chambers seems to cover the required material for Mac OS 10.3 OK, but he could have said it in less than half of the 692 pages if he kept his all-to-frequent attempts to be entertaining out of the book. Example: ". . . drag the default bar at the bottom of the window to the toolbar at the top. This is the toolbar equivalent of tapping your ruby slippers together three times and repeating, 'There's no place like home.'" (p.-175). He carries on like this to the point of distraction. I would recommend two other books: Easy Mac OS X, v10.3 Panther ©2004 (288 pages) by Kate Binder - much more clear than Chambers, and has lots of screen shots to show how to set up and use OS X. The second book, Mac OS X Panther Unleashed ©2004 (1673 pages) by John & William C. Ray - delves into technical details, but also covers all the information non-technical users need.
