Review
The iMac, however intuitively designed, comes with hardly any explanatory literature. Some books have sprung up to fill the gap and Sams Teach Yourself the iMac in 24 Hours is among the best. It walks you through everything--beginning with unpacking your iMac and hooking up its cables--in a style that assumes nothing without coming off as condescending.
Divided into 24 lessons, this book makes it easy to learn about a particular aspect of your iMac in depth during a single sitting. The author explains a feature in general terms first, then explains how to accomplish specific things (it's easy to refer back to these stepped procedures later). This approach works well for Quicken, Internet connectivity, iMac customisation and other pieces of the system, but AppleWorks coverage seems scanty (only 20 heavily illustrated pages deal with this important productivity suite). The book also would be better with an explanation of simple networks.
Sams Teach Yourself the iMac in 24 Hours earns points by embracing the iMac's more powerful features in addition to its fundamentals. The author explains the contents of the System Folder and provides an appetite-whetting introduction to AppleScript programming. -- DavidWall
Topics covered: Hardware, software, Internet connectivity, hardware upgrades and customisation.

Condition: Acceptable. LIGHTNING FAST SHIPPING! A heavily used, but still working copy. Coffee stain and wrinkling to the edge of the pages when a tired undergrad fell asleep and knocked their cup over on their books. The binding and pages of the book have been reinforced with tape, has tape and stickers on the cover, as well as lots of notes (some of the answers in the learning activities may be filled in) on the pages. Definitely not pretty, but it's a working copy at a great price that ships fast. ~ Book does NOT contain an access code or CD/DVD. Seller Inventory # #208E-0091
