I am forwarding this message from a member of the Web405 Mailing List Community.

Note: I am NOT teaching this class, but I thought there might be some of you who would be interested in attending.

Introduction to Macintosh OS X

A seminar for upgraders, new Mac users, switchers, and potential switchers. This class is designed to provide a solid Mac OS X foundation. If you're upgrading from any previous MacOS, you should regain and perhaps surpass your former comfort level. If you're a Windows user you'll leave confident that you can work well in OS X. But while the basics are well covered, my focus is always Mac Efficiency. You'll learn a lot of productivity power tips. Clarity and understanding for new-comers will not be at the cost of upgraders

You will learn things like:

  • What's inside a Mac
  • How to care for your Mac
  • Terminology
  • How to efficiently access programs
  • How to efficiently save documents to easily access later
  • What Disk images are & how they work
  • Understanding multiple users
  • Installing Fonts
  • Printing
  • Sharing files on your network
  • Seeing you iDisk (for .Mac account holders)
  • Facts & tips about Hard Drive care

...And other great things we can fit into the 4 or 4.5 hours

BYOM
: If you'd like to bring your PowerBook along, you can follow along or experiment during breaks. There will be a couple of tables for PowerBooks.This is not a hands-on class so it'll go faster than you may go, but having your Mac with you may still be helpful. Mark Hartman, ACN, will also be on hand to help if you get lost.


HOW TO REGISTER: To pay by check please reply to me directly or email me from my website asap and I'll save you a spot and send you mailing info. I am not sure I'll enable online credit card payment this time as people failed to recognize the charge last time, costing a great deal of time.
