5 out of 5 stars Answers to Mac Book Pro...finally!   April 29, 2009

I am a recent convert to the MAC and although I would never go back to a PC the change over left me with a lot of questions that no one seemed to be able to answer. I tried the Apple store,but they were always putting you on hold; I tried Macbook for dummies but I felt as dumb after as I did before. My salvation came in the form of the "Portable genius" by Brad Miser. It is as easy read and answers all of the questions that you don't know to ask. I highly recommend it for anyone using a Mac!

While the book doesn't cover all the items needed by a newbie to the Mac, it deals with broader topics and applications not native to the Mac on delivery. It's clearly and well-written.

I purchased a 13" Mac Pro because I needed more than just a working laptop. Not disappointed, however, while I picked it up pretty quickly I Knew I was missing out on the finer features and needed help. Looked at the "Dummy" series but was not convinced that I would get the help that I needed. Then after more searching I came across the "Genius" series which seemed more appropriate. I found the book easy to follow, very informative for a Mac newby, and I am now getting into the heart of my MacBook Pro with confidence and enjoying the experience. Recommended for all new to Mac!

I would buy this even if I didn't have a Mac, just for the front cover. What a hottie!

As a brand-new Apple user (and long time PC user) I found this book incredibly useful as I made the transition. It provides step by step instructions for using the basics (email, internet, address books, calendars, printing, etc) and familiarizing oneself with the Apple world.
