The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Macintosh Crash Course':
Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
From the title, you might be forgiven for thinking this book was about
troubleshooting or data recovery. In a way, you'd be right. The first rule of
computer troubleshooting is "Know Thy Computer", and this is about getting that
information. Not out of the book, but from utilities. This volume is a
compendium of information about utilities.
Some of the utilities are given full reviews. For most, contact information
and a short description have to suffice. But there are hundreds listed, for
such tasks as loading extensions, managing memory, backups, compression,
diagnostics, protection, resolving conflicts, file recovery, fonts (of course),
and printing. In addition, Brown includes bios on authors, and interviews with
a select few.
