Description
Now that every new Macintosh computer ships with Mac OS X 10.1, you need Mac OS X 10.1: Visual QuickStart Guide to show you how to get the most out of Apple's radically redesigned operating system. Responding to user input on the initial release of OS X, Apple has improved the already-gorgeous Aqua user interface and added a number of enhancements--all of which veteran Mac author Maria Langer walks you through in this Visual QuickStart Guide.
Offering the detailed, step-by-step instructions and plentiful visual aids that have become hallmarks of the VQS series, Mac OS X 10.1: Visual QuickStart Guide provides everything you need to know to install, configure, and use the OS and its accompanying software. Before you know it, you'll be burning CDs, watching DVD movies, customizing your Dock, sharing files across networks, and more--all on an operating system that has the power, stability, and security of Unix at its core.
