Starting with the basics, you'll find tips, hints, tutorials, shortcuts, troubleshooting advice, informative screen shots, timesaving software recommendations, where to do what on the Web, and much more.

This book features hundreds of useful and timesaving tips and hints, and tons of advice - not only from Dr. Mac, but from more than 60 other Mac OS X Power Users.
The companion Web site is chock-full of links to the absolute best freeware, shareware, games, demo programs, informative .pdf files, icons, and more - all handpicked by Dr. Mac. Take a look at www.boblevitus.com/xfiles.html for more details.
Learn how to:
* Diagnose and cure common OS X problems, with a minimum of inconvenience
* Find anything and everything your Mac will ever need on the World Wide Web
* Impress your friends with your newfound Unix knowledge (and maybe even fix some things too)
* Customize your system with more than 100 handpicked programs reviewed throughout the book that make Mac OS X better, more fun, or both
