Functional but perfunctory if not dull.,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Complete Idiot's Guide to iMac (Complete Idiot's Guide) (Paperback)
I ordered this book expecting pictures, charts, and simple lists of the things I need to do to make things work on the run. Instead, I'm finding as much prose as in the "Dummies" series, but the style is so flat, static, and detached that it's less engaging and helpful than the "Dummies" book by David Pogue or "My Imac" by Gore et. al. A computer like the Imac deserves a style as zesty, colorful, inviting as its subject. This may be my newest book on the Imac, but it's my last choice of texts.
