 Answers to Mac Book Pro...finally!Apr 29, 2009
By Robert J. Peiffer
I am a recent convert to the MAC and although I would never go back to a PC the change over left me with a lot of questions that no one seemed to be able to answer. I tried the Apple store,but they were always putting you on hold; I tried Macbook for dummies but I felt as dumb after as I did before. My salvation came in the form of the "Portable genius" by Brad Miser. It is as easy read and answers all of the questions that you don't know to ask. I highly recommend it for anyone using a Mac!

Like a MacBook Pro owner's manual.Dec 03, 2009
By D. Chun
We just recently bought our MacBook Pro and love it. This Genius book really fills in the knowledge gaps since the documentation that comes with the laptop is cute but not very substantial. Laid out logically in easy-to-read chapters, this book is a good learning and reference book. Good images and readable language make this a good buy--well worth the price.

Great resourceJan 11, 2009
By Laura P
As a brand-new Apple user (and long time PC user) I found this book incredibly useful as I made the transition. It provides step by step instructions for using the basics (email, internet, address books, calendars, printing, etc) and familiarizing oneself with the Apple world.

New to MacJul 11, 2010
By DavidJ
I purchased a 13" Mac Pro because I needed more than just a working laptop. Not disappointed, however, while I picked it up pretty quickly I Knew I was missing out on the finer features and needed help. Looked at the "Dummy" series but was not convinced that I would get the help that I needed. Then after more searching I came across the "Genius" series which seemed more appropriate. I found the book easy to follow, very informative for a Mac newby, and I am now getting into the heart of my MacBook Pro with confidence and enjoying the experience. Recommended for all new to Mac!

MacBook Pro Portable Genius by Brad Miser (book)Oct 06, 2009
By David H. Ornstein
It's clear, well written and quite thorough. I'm a Mac newbie, and friends had recommended "The Missing Manual" but it wasn't yet published. This was a great purchase for me. Others' reviews guided my decision. I do recommend it it to anyone who is new to OS X and/or MacBook/MacBook Pro.
