David,
I have been an avid reader of your informative and
entertaining Mac articles and books for many years. However, I
must cry foul on your missing chapter on iPhoto in your
Mac OS X 2nd
Edition. The subtitle should have read: "The book
that should have been in the book." There's not even a passing
mention of how to use iPhoto with OS X 10.2. So if we want the
Missing Manual on
iPhoto, we are asked to buy yet another of
your books. What a scam!
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to vent on this issue,
Michael
Interesting point! Of course, iMovie and AppleWorks also come free with
most Macs, and there are also Missing
Manuals on these topics. Are you suggesting that we wrap them all up into
one gigantic 3,000-page book?
I'm not sure the buying public would go for it. :)
Meanwhile, we do publish the table of contents and index of every book
at www.missingmanuals.com, so I'm not
sure the omission of iPhoto coverage qualifies as a "scam."
David
Got a question?
Just ask!
