Confirmed errors:


(xxxi)  paragraph 6;
Apparently, someone changed Preface to Introduction and failed to change the figure
numbering to correspond: e.g., figures are given as P-1, P-2, etc. They should be I-
1, I-2, etc. for consistency. Additionally, in every other chapter, figures are
indicated in the text by chapter number and figure (such as Figure 6-3); however, in
the Intro, they're just Figure 1, etc. They really should be Figure I-1, etc.


(71)  item 2., top of page;
book item reads:

2. At the prompt type <i>defaults write com.apple.Dock.orientation -string
top</i>(and then press Enter).

item should read:

2. At the prompt type:
   defaults write com.apple.Dock.orientation -string top
Then press Enter.


(93)  2nd full paragraph (For this change to take effect ...);
"killall dock" in second line down should read "killall Dock"


{176} Intelligent Searches;
The book says:
 To force Mail to search for the entire phrase, put quotes around it.
 Hence, if you type "dog food" the program will look only for messages
 that contain that exact phrase.

This doesn't work in 10.3.  Mail ignores the quotes and returns every
piece of mail with either "dog" or "food" in it.
