Use Part III of this book
Part III of this book, Macintosh Reference, contains all the
information you need to use your computer’s hardware and
system software. Unlike Parts I and II, which are meant to be read
from beginning to end, Part III is meant to be used like an
encyclopedia: you turn to it when you need to look up some
information, and read only that information.
To help you find the information you need, this book has a
table of contents and an index. The back of the book also has
a summary of commonly used skills, and a troubleshooting
section.
What next?
