| Congratulations are in order! Chances are good that if you’ve purchased this book you either own or soon will own a Mac, and that is always a good thing. If you are using a computer for the first time, your experience will be light years beyond that of your friend or family member who started out with a PC. If you are a seasoned PC user, the Mac is so elegant and so simple to use in comparison to what you’re used to that the way you work with, and what you expect from, a computer will change forever. Some people have a hard time understanding how someone could get so excited about a computer, and their puzzlement is understandable. It’s hard to get pumped about the average PC, but we’re not talking about that; we’re talking about a Mac! I’ve seen many a person shrug their shoulders and laugh at the notion that all computers aren’t equal, only to have them sit in front of a Mac and watch them as they “ooh” and “aah” with each click of the mouse. Welcome, my friend, to computing as it was meant to be experienced. |
