PowerBook and iBook Field Guide

It’s out! The PowerBook and iBook Digital Field Guide is the culmination of some hard work over the spring and summer months, with a great deal of help from my co-author, Dennis Cohen. I’ve looked forward to writing this book for a long time — I’ve been pitching the concept for a few years now — because I think it’s great to have a companion book for your Mac portable that focuses exclusively on what you *need* to know and keeps the size down so that it fits in your bag.

This book skips most of the “basics” of the Mac OS and discusses, instead, issues like data security, working with a portable as your “desktop replacement” and getting acccess to data while you’re on the road. There’s also troubleshooting info, a guide to portable bags and accessories and more. Plus, the publisher makes it pretty easy to buy this book, thanks to a coupon good for two Audible.com eBooks that are worth the cover price.

And that doesn’t even take into consideration the fact that Amazon gives you 32% off!
