There is a publisher of e-books with the series called "Take Control", that I have liked. I think they are all Apple computer related, but I could be wrong; that's just been my focus. I'm going to cut & paste the last e-mail I received from them. It has the links to their whole catalog, links to some free pages, and especially info on their Lion edition. Hope this helps: ---------------------------------------- Good day!
