"A Confidence Builder"
Having been a PC-user for 25 years, it was a little daunting to make the switch to a Mac. "Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition" really helped me find functions that would have taken a lot longer by hunting and clicking around blindly. Things I like about the book:
- very clearly written - not too technical, but not condescending either;
- humor, without overdoing it;
- good overview of the Mac philosophy;
- "Where'd it Go?", mapping MSWindows functions to corresponding OS X functions;
- mail transfer support;
- brief introductions to applications.
Disappointments:
- Leopard edition not available when I bought the Mac (not a criticism).

I have recommended this book to friends, and will be purchasing the "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition".

"Well worth the cost"
Excellent resource for anyone who is switching from a PC to Mac. Easy to understand chapters, great content, helpful hints. I had no idea how powerful Macs were in comparison to PC's.

"Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition"
This book appears to be the most comprehensive compared to other books of this nature for the Mac. Apple doesn't supply any form of manual therefore this manual appears to be the best bet. David Pogue has authored a number of books on th subject of Apple computers and is very well qualified to do so. It won't be until I need to solve any problems that I will find out how useful, comprehensive, or thorough this manual is. I feel this is the best choice.

"Better to have new Mac in hand"
Good book. No matter how you handle this 400+ pages on how to run an OS is boring. While info is good, best to have the computer in hand so you can refer to the real thing. I am too broke to buy the Mac Pro that I want so will wait untill after X mas to treat myself and then reopen the book!

"Knowledge Abounds"
Tremendous help. Menus large and clearly illustrated. Easy explanations. I am reading it cover-to-cover because I want to be aware of most everything. In the long run, it will save me loads of time. Although I will not remember everything I read, I will remember that I read something about the topic and will be able to reference back to it! And with this knowledge I will be a power MAC user!

"This should be the book that comes with Mac Computers", This is the Book for any one who has switched to Mac Computers. It should be included with every Mac Computer. The book helped understand the differences between pc and MAC computers. I recommend this book for any one thinking of switching from pc to MAC. It is invaluable!

"Awesome MAC tool for PC switchers", I Just bought my Macbook Pro 6 weeks ago and experienced many PC to Mac switcher issues. This book is really helping me get acquainted with my new mac. The author attempts to add a touch of humor to make an otherwise boring 400 page instruction manual easy to read. It didn't work, but I didn't buy a piece of fiction and I'm not expecting to be entertained; I'm expecting to learn how to fully utilize my new Mac, and this book delivers as promised. After looking at [...] price for the book, my only regret is that I didn't buy it here. Instead I picked it up at a Fry's Electronics and paid a whopping $[...] for it! Sorry, amazon, I should have been a loyal shopper and tried you first.

"Switching to the Mac; Tiger Edition", Excellent. Lots of details that I can use or if too complicated for me, can ignore. But they are there for me to decide. Similar books try to dumb down the information and consequently leave out things that I could use. It just fits what I was looking for. Plenty of pictures in case your own computer is not responding like the text seems to say. Text is not written as a text book but with a lightness(not just going for a joke). Since this is by definition a comparison of two computer systems, there is no dumping on MS; just pointing out the differences.

"Simple and Informative", Great book and very well illustrated. I found a wealth of information in an easy format to read and understand. I would highly recommend this book! I had used the Mac for a while before getting this book and wish I would have known about it a lot sooner.

"100% of the worlds software?", I wasn't aware that the the thousands of software applications written almost exclusively for Linux would run on a mac.

"Worth the Money", This book is definitely worth the money. I used this book from the moment I began using my new Mac. And it's true, this book should have been included with the computer -- it is indeed the "missing manual."

"I wanted to see why people love their Mac's, so I bought one.", My doctor had a top of the line Mac and I really liked the way it ran. I also thought the huge screen was totally cool. So I had the chance to buy a four year old iBook G4 for a good price, just to see what I might be missing. It's Great for creative work.

"Perfect companion", Until a few months ago, I would never have bought anything but a PC. For some reason, I decided to buy an iMac. I love it now. But this book made it possible. At first, I was confused and knew I had made a monumental mistake by not buying yet another trusty PC. Oh, yes, I looked back wistfully and yearned for the weekly (if not more frequent) updates to keep those pesky viruses, worms, maggots, whatever out of my computer. But then I found this book, and combined it with one other (MAC OS X, Tiger Edition) and discovered another dimension of computing. I love my iMac. I love these books. And if you are new to the Mac, they are invaluable!!! I even bought a set for my son in college, who also decided to surrender his idolatry of the PC and switch to a Mac Book. He feels the same! Easy to read. Easy to find what you need. Easy to follow directions!!! They're great!

"Very Useful for New Intel Mac Switchers", This book will save you time in the transition from PC to Mac, now increasingly common as buyers are attracted to the new Intel Macs. You can probably figure out most of the operating system differences on your own, but the hints in this book justify the price.

The switch, by the way, is also worth it.

"Switcher's manual", Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition
Great book!
It tells you all the things us poor PC users would take ages to learn.
The language is easy, fun and very, very clear, although sometimes it tends to err on the verbose side of life.
Good buy for the money
