Mac OS X Panther Unleashed (3rd Edition)

Buy
Underneath the colorful interface of Mac OS X is a powerful, complicated operating system based on BSD Unix. And, Mac users of all kinds continue to need help both in figuring out how to run OS X and in understanding how OS X works underneath the covers as well as how to get the most out it. In late summer 2003 Apple is expected to release a new version of OS X, code-named Panther, that will add performance and interface enhancements, and that will further extend the capabilities of the underlying Unix-based subsystem. The third edition of Mac OS X Unleashed takes the same approach as the best selling first and second editions. The book is known for helping the reader deal with the most trouble-prone aspects of the user interface, including the new features in the latest version, but focusing to a much greater extent on the BSD environment and how the user or administrator can get the most out of both the current operating system as well as the new components expected in the latest version.
