Nothin' But Tips!

If you were going to write a computer book and you had a really cool undocumented keyboard shortcut, or an inside secret, or a really slick trick for doing something faster or better, how would you get your reader's attention? You'd probably pull that tip out from your regular text, put a box around it, and add the word "TIP" in big letters, right? That way it almost shouts, "Hey, look over here-you're about to learn something really cool!" Everybody loves these little "sidebar" tips. We're all drawn to them because we know that's where the really amazing, really fun, really useful stuff is found. There's only one problem-there's never enough of 'em.

Problem Solved!

Scott Kelby, best-selling author and Editor-in-Chief of Layers magazine, is totally hooked on tips, and he thought/'Wouldn't it be great if there was a book that, cover-to-cover, was nothing but those little Mac OS X sidebar tips?" That's exactly what this is-an entire book of nothing but "Killer" Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger tips (without the sidebars, without all the techno-UNIX stuff, but with plenty of helpful graphics). No long paragraphs on how to configure a network, or different ways to partition your hard drive-it's just packed with fun, cool, timesaving tips- all in plain English.

Not Just Tips. Killer Tips!

To be in this book, every tip has got to be a "Killer Tip" (the kind of tip that makes you nod and smile, then call all your Mac buddies to tune them up with your newfound power). The whole book is designed to make you faster, more efficient, and most importantly, have more fun using Mac OS X v10.4Tiger. If you like tips, you're gonna love this book.
