Hello WAMUGers,
Two "Take Control" Books just released. I have purchased both and recommend them. they are well worth purchasing and downloading.
**Take Control of Upgrading to Snow Leopard** -- The Snow Leopard installer offers fewer options than previous Mac OS X installers, but it has a few twists and quirks that can cause stress and uncertainty. In this 81-page ebook, Joe helps readers upgrade calmly and successfully with clear, expert steps developed over innumerable test installations. In particular, he helps you evaluate if your Mac's hardware and software are ready to run Snow Leopard, create a bootable duplicate as insurance against upgrading woes, understand what the installer will do, run the installer, perform post-installation tweaks, and solve problems that might arise.

**Take Control of Exploring & Customizing Snow Leopard** -- This new 165-page ebook is based on Matt's "Take Control of Customizing..." ebooks, but we added "Exploring" to its title to give Matt more room for how-to topics. The ebook points out lots of tiny things that are new in Snow Leopard but that you might not notice otherwise. You'll learn how to adjust how things look, get around fast, and use special features like a pro. Particular topics covered include: Spotlight, Time Machine, Software Update, Dashboard, the Dock, the Finder window, organizing and finding your folder and files, window management with Exposé and Spaces, keyboard and trackpad shortcuts, Services, zooming the screen, font management, typing special characters, typing in a second language, customizing your menu bar, login items, parental controls, and Internet helpers.
