>Want to give one of our ebooks as a gift? Since we don't use DRM of
>any sort, you can buy the ebook just as you would buy it for yourself
>and then give the PDF file to your recipient using the technology of
>your choice, such as a funky USB thumb drive or nicely labeled CD-R
>if you need something physical to wrap. For last minute gift-giving,
>you can just attach one of our PDFs to an email message or drop it in
>an iChat window while you're wishing the recipient many happy regards.
>
>Not sure what titles might be most useful to you? Here's a guide:
>
>* You've been a power user for years, and you like to know precisely
>what's going on under the hood and why. Our best-selling title, "Take
>Control of Mac OS X Backups, Fourth Edition," covers the field of Mac
>backups in a huge way; "Take Control of iPhone OS 3" provides all
>sorts of geeky iPhone details and troubleshooting advice; and "Take
>Control of Your 802.11n AirPort Network" explains the many, many
>things to know about Apple's AirPort base stations and Wi-Fi
>networking on the Mac. And, if you want to understand how Mac OS X
>handles syncing managed data like contacts and calendar items, "Take
>Control of Syncing Data in Snow Leopard" has the scoop on Sync
>Services and the truth database.
>
>* You know your way around your Mac at a basic level, but you'd like
>to better understand how things work. "Take Control of Users &
>Accounts in Snow Leopard" brings you up to speed on how accounts work
>in Mac OS X, while "Take Control of the Mac Command Line with
>Terminal" introduces you to the command line and helps you use it for
>practical tasks. "Take Control of Exploring & Customizing Snow
>Leopard" helps you get started with various aspects of Mac OS X, and
>"Take Control of Passwords in Mac OS X" is required reading for
>anyone frustrated entering passwords frequently on a Mac and the Web.
>If you want a solid, useful overview of the most important aspects of
>Mac OS X, there's the "Macworld Total Snow Leopard Superguide."
>Finally, to prevent and fix problems, check out "Take Control of
>Maintaining Your Mac" and "Take Control of Troubleshooting Your Mac."
>
>* You're less interested in Mac OS X than in running applications
>that let you communicate with family and friends or help you create
>Web sites, podcasts, music, photographic slideshows, and more. Check
>out "Take Control of Safari 4," "Take Control of iWeb '09," "Take
>Control of Making Music in GarageBand '09," "Take Control of
>Recording in GarageBand '09," "Take Control of Podcasting on a Mac,"
>and "Take Control of Customizing Microsoft Office." Also, don't miss
>the "Macworld Digital Photography Superguide" and my "iPhoto '09:
>Visual QuickStart Guide."
>
>* You're planning to upgrade your Mac to Snow Leopard over the break,
>or you're planning to give Snow Leopard as a gift. "Take Control of
>Upgrading to Snow Leopard" has clear, step-by-step instructions for a
>painless, stress-free upgrade, and "Take Control of Exploring &
>Customizing Snow Leopard" goes the next step by showing you around
>Snow Leopard's main features.
>
>* You have an iPhone or iPod touch, or one figures in your
>gift-giving plans for the season. "Take Control of Your iPhone Apps"
>is a must-read for anyone starting with an iPhone because it lets you
>in on hidden features in Apple's core apps that you aren't likely to
>find on your own. And "Take Control of iPhone OS 3" provides in-depth
>configuration details and troubleshooting advice should anything go
>wrong. For a general overview, also see the "Macworld iPhone & iPod
>touch Superguide, Third Edition."
>
>No matter which ebook you're interested in, you can find it on our
>catalog page, which you can also view as a big list of ebooks, sorted
>alphabetically, using the coupon-embedded link below. Again, the
>coupon code - CPN91211HOL - should automatically appear on the first
>screen of the cart after you click a Buy button.
