MacBook For Dummies

Author(s): Mark L.Chambers

Year: Aug 2006
ISBN: 047004859X
Language: English
Pages: 386
File type: PDF
Size : 6.2 MB


Each chapter in this book has been written as a reference on a specific hardware or software topic. Due to the hard work of my editors, you can begin reading anywhere you like because each chapter is self-contained. However, I recommend that you read from front to back, because the linear order of the book makes a great deal of sense.

I wrote this book for myself — and for every other Apple laptop owner who desires to become a laptop techno-wizard. In these pages, you’ll find a guide to both your laptop’s hardware and Mac OS X Tiger, the latest version of Apple’s superb operating system. After I cover the basics that every laptop owner should know, you find out how to accomplish all sorts of cutting-edge audio, visual, and Internet projects. (Oh, and if you already have another of my books, you know that I don’t skimp on the power user tips and tricks that’ll save you time, effort, and money.)

Like my dozen-or-so other For Dummies titles, I respect and use the same English language you learned in school, avoiding jargon, ridiculous computer acronyms, and confusing techno-babble whenever possible. (Plus, I try to bring out the humor that’s hidden inside every computer. Finding out how to use your Mac should be fun, and not a chore!)

This book has been written using the latest MacBook Pro computer, so owners of older Mac laptops that aren’t running Intel processors may not be able to follow along with everything I cover. However, if you’ve upgraded an older G4 laptop with Mac OS X Tiger and the iLife ’06 application suite, you should be able to use most of the book with no problem!

Chemistry Science Fair Projects Using French Fries, Gumdrops, Soap, and Other Organic Stuff

Grade 7 Up–This book opens with a simple explanation of organic chemistry and a discussion of the various materials that are needed for the projects that follow. Students are encouraged to build upon the 29 experiments presented and to develop their own inquiries.

Simple black-and-white drawings complement the text, and illustrations of chemical structures help to demonstrate reactions. A sound addition to science collections.
