 A very Informative, And helpful Book September 24, 2007
A few months ago when my brother presented me with a Mac G4 as a birthday present, he told me the best Mac book writers he'd come across were Robin Williams and David Poath (with which I now heartily concur).
Now I can add Jim Heid to that list.I found his book and dvd very helpful, and I can't thank him enough for taking the time to write such an informative and easy to follow book.
I look forward to the next one Mr Heid, as I'm about to purchase a Classic ipod.....
The book is well illustrated, and thorough in detail - I'd recommend it to anyone.

In reviewing iLife '05, I must say I've never seen a more thorough presentation. I would recommend this book to any Mac user. The included 90 minute CD is reason enough to purchase this great CD. What you read is supplemented by pictures to further explain each topic. A valuable investment.

This book is incredibly helpful for people just beginning on the Mac. It sets up each program seperately and also shows you how to get the best use of all of them together. The DVD is also a wonderful suppliment to the book, they follow along with each other.
