Overview
XPLAINING MACINTOSH provides fundamental knowledge of Macintosh computing for new & intermediate-level users. Written in everyday English, it is organized so that each chapter can be read sequentially as needed in a training program or read separately as experience with the Macintosh improves. The book takes the reader through a progression from questions about buying a Macintosh to being an advanced user. A chapter on computer system fundamentals examines the basic functional units comprising an EDP system, the internal representation of data, & the operating system including the Finder, cdevs, & INITs. Explanations of various categories of software help clarify what type of programs should be used for which tasks. The details of disk drives, fax machines, optical storage, & scanners are discussed in Peripherals. Two other chapters deal with accessories & their purchase from computer dealers & mail order companies. The importance of backing-up files, details of fonts, how-to organized Macintosh hardware & software for maximum efficiency, & a table of system errors is presented in System Implementation. The final chapter has definitions for over 1,000 acronyms & terms associated with Macintosh computing.
