Is Windows giving you pause? Ready to make the leap to the Mac instead? There
has never been a better time to switch from Windows to Mac, and this
incomparable guide will help you make a smooth transition. New York Times
columnist and Missing Manuals creator David Pogue gets you past three
challenges: transferring your stuff, assembling Mac programs so you can do what
you did with Windows, and learning your way around Mac OS X.

Why is this such a good time to switch? Upgrading from one version of Windows to
another used to be simple. But now there's Windows Vista, a veritable resource
hog that forces you to relearn everything. Learning a Mac is not a piece of
cake, but once you do, the rewards are oh-so-much better. No viruses, worms or
spyware. No questionable firewalls, inefficient permissions, or other strange
features. Just a beautiful machine with a thoroughly reliable system. And if
you're still using Windows XP, we've got you covered, too.

If you're ready to take on Mac OS X Leopard, the latest edition of this
bestselling guide tells you everything you need to know:

* Transferring your stuff -- Moving photos, MP3s, and Microsoft Office
documents is the easy part. This book gets you through the tricky things:
extracting your email, address book, calendar, Web bookmarks, buddy list,
desktop pictures, and MP3 files.


* Re-creating your software suite -- Big-name programs (Word, Photoshop,
Firefox, Dreamweaver, and so on) are available in both Mac and Windows versions,
but hundreds of other programs are available only for Windows. This guide
identifies the Mac equivalents and explains how to move your data to them.


* Learning Leopard -- Once you've moved into the Mac, a final task awaits:
Learning your way around. Fortunately, you're in good hands with the author of
Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, the #1 bestselling guide to the Macintosh.

Moving from Windows to a Mac successfully and painlessly is the one thing Apple
does not deliver. Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition is
your ticket to a new computing experience.
