5 out of 5 stars Best MAC OS X Book   May 28, 2008
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

We purchased several other OS X 10.5 books but this one is the best by far. The book is structured for learning and reference with examples and text on the same page. The book also demonstrates just about any thing you may want to do in concise straight forward language with clear examples. For the beginner or intermediate this book is excellent.

Maria Langer's Mac OS X 10,5 Leopard is excellent for detailed information, presented straightforwardly and without embellishment. Contrast it to David Pogue's "Mac OS X Leopard--The Missing Manual, which is, as ever, wildly entertaining,but somewhat less effective in presentation.
Langer's book allows you to look up something quickly, while Pogue's is more of a good (tech) read at the beach.

Good presentation of OS 10.5.
Table of contents and index are well-structured and thorough.
