This book is supposed to help the new iMac owner use his/her computer. My husband gave me a new iMac and this book as a gift. I spent 3 hours trying to find how to make my new printer work. This book has nothing at all about how to connect and use a printer.It even fails to explain the hidden steps of the printer "chooser" to enable the novice to select a printer. My advice is to choose a different book. This one is too simple for the experienced Mac user and leaves out important stuff that the new user will need.

First, a review for those people whose only computer experience is with an iMac: Great book! Easy and fun to read! Cool CD! Buy it now!

Now that they're gone... I purchased this book because I hadn't worked on Apples in a while and most other books on the shelf were as dated as my knowledge. The back cover and a quick skim led me to believe this book provided comprehensive coverage of Mac to iMac migration, troubleshooting, and the new features in OS 8. It didn't. Part one contains some nice photos, and part three some good advice, but as a technical reference it is sorely lacking (and part two has little to offer anyone computer savvy enough to read this review).

Though I enjoyed the William Gibson and Star Trek references, and I highly recommend this book to beginners, all in all iMnot iMpressed.

The clarity and liveliness of the writing style make this a useful book even to purchasers of the more recent DVD model . The pictures are as plentiful and good as you'll find anywhere, and the inclusion of a CD is a nice bonus. But it needs to be updated.

Normally I am not one to read a book on political issues. But, due to the election crisis, the Clinton issues in his poor taste, I decided to order the book. It was like reading a action packed novel, non-stop from the first page to the last. It opened the eyes of thiis democrat.

This book has opened my eyes to show the truth with the Democratic party and the Clinton-Gore administration. I have learned about many of the things that the media has tried to hide from the public. I have read about so many of the despicable acts carried on during Clinton's presidency. I would recommend this book to anyone beginning to feel disillusioned with the Democratic party after the last 8 years. I believe the truth has been told and I am very happy to have found this information. Very interesting reading to say the least!

There are certain people who have written books about the Clintons and the Clinton administration and the unfair bias of the book made it impossible to finish. Christopher Ruddy is not one of those people. His exceptional talent for the truth with an objective point of view is what allowed me to finish this book in just under 2 hours.

Ruddy is relentless in his pursuit of the truth about the Clinton Administration and his ability to reveal the stories that the liberal press left out is simply some of the best reporting I have read in a very long time, after reading the book you'll be asking yourself why you never heard this information before.

Ruddy busts through the blind press to give you stories about the Teamster scandal, Chinagate, Janet Reno and what she did to help cover-up scandals. Ruddy also shows that the Monica scandal was more than a "personal" affair and it's only the tip on the iceberg in the sex scandals throughout the political life of Bill Clinton.

Ruddy is more than a reporter, he's a pit bull when it comes to uncovering what the media has hidden. His capacity to stop the ever running spin machine and give you the true story is what Chris Ruddy is all about.

From insights into the real Bill and Hillary to the strange deaths of Ron Brown and Vince Foster, to the media bias, to the selling of secrets to China and the illegal campaign contributions this book is filled with interesting and sometime amazing stories. Very well done Christopher Ruddy!!!!!
