Appendix D. The “Where’d It Go?” Dictionary (Windows Version)
Maybe you were persuaded by the Apple “Switch” ad campaign. Maybe you just like the looks of today’s Macs. Or maybe you’ve just had one IRQ conflict too many. In any case, if you’re switching to Mac OS X from Windows, this appendix is for you. It’s an alphabetical listing of every common Windows function and where to find it in Mac OS X. After all, an operating system is an operating system. The actual functions are pretty much the same—they’re just in different places.
Tip
If this listing only whets your appetite for information about making the switch, read Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual. In addition to an expanded version of this appendix, it also contains useful information on moving your files from the PC to the Mac, copying over your email, transferring your address book, and so on.
