People,
I was not pleased with this book.
The cdrom contained some kind of bug which prevented me from reading
the enclosed pdf file.
Sybex support rudely suggested the problem was with my PC.
I pointed out that my PC has no problems reading the pdf files
on their site.

2 No fluff and made with care
This book IS NOT WIMPY! It's really comprehensive -- there's something in here for everyone, but less for beginners, more for those who are familiar w/ OSX. Author does a good job of differentiating system-configuration variations and his companion web site is icing on the cake.
Very well-written, very well edited, very well organized. Like a piece of century-old furniture, it's hard to find computer books with the overall quality of this book these days.
