The latest book from Maria Langer, Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard: Visual QuickStart Guide, was one of the first on the Apple Store shelves. Maria talks about how her book differs from other choices out there, and how her approach to writing and editing contribute to that difference. Maria also discusses why the book can be viewed as both an introduction to the new Mac OS as well as a reference manual, the fact that QuickTime Pro isn’t gone, it just changed locations, and why OS changes can be hard to integrate into your workflow, but are worth the effort.
