Switch to Mac!
And as my hairline takes another leap towards the
nape of my neck, Future Publishing Ltd is delighted
to announce another special, MacFormat presents Switch to
Mac!, this time aimed at the burgeoning
‘switchers’ market, those krazy kats who are
switching from PC to Mac in their tens of
thousands. (Over half of all Macs sold are sold to
those who’ve never used a Mac before, Apple tells
us.)
Like its stablemate The Essential iPhone Handbook, it’s a thing of beauty. I didn’t edit this one, but I wrote about a third of it all told; I’ve been going through it again just now to put the graphics together for this post, and I’m really proud of what we’ve created. There’s loads of information in there, including which Mac is right for you, how to migrate your data from your PC to your new Mac, and how to use all the best-of-breed media applications that all Macs ship with. Plus there’s troubleshooting advice and some ideas on essential kit you can add to your Mac setup; it’s all written specifically for ex-Windows users, too, with liberal use of terms Windows users will be familiar with, and jargon-busters and dictionaries galore.
Go! Buy a copy for the switcher in your life!
