It’s little wonder that longtime Windows users are migrating in droves to the new Mac. They’re fed up with the virus-prone Windows way of life, and they’re lured by Apple’s well-deserved reputation for producing great all-around computers that are reliable, user-friendly, well designed, and now–with the $500 Mac mini–extremely affordable, too.
Whether you’re drawn to the Mac’s stability, its stunning digital media suite, or the fact that a whole computer can look and feel as slick as your iPod, you can quickly and easily become a Mac convert. But consider yourself warned: a Mac isn’t just a Windows machine in a prettier box; it’s a whole different animal and a whole new computing experience.

Missing Manual series creator and bestselling author David Pogue teams up with 17-year-old whiz kid and founder of GoldfishSoft (www.goldfishsoft.com) Adam Goldstein to cover every aspect of switching to a Mac–things like transferring email, files, and addresses from a PC to a Mac; getting acquainted with the Mac’s interface; adapting to Mac versions of familiar programs (including Microsoft Office); setting up a network to share files with PCs and Macs; and using the printers, scanners, and other peripherals you already own.

Covering the latest in Mac OS X v.10.4 “Tiger,” Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition explains the hundreds of innovative new features to the Mac OS and how you can understand and make the very most of each.

Whether you’re a novice or a power user, Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition, teaches you how to smoothly and seamlessly replace (or supplement) your Windows machine–in a refreshingly funny and down-to-earth style–with a mighty Mac.
