My newest book:

"10 Things To Do Before Upgrading to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion"

“10 Things To Do Before Upgrading to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion” (Peachpit Press, July 2012)

Blurb: Sure, you can simply purchase Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store and click the Upgrade button, but we think it’s a much better idea to prepare your system so that after you upgrade, you can get back to work with the least amount of trouble and disruption. In this to-the-point ebook, OS X expert Tom Negrino walks you through the steps you should accomplish before clicking that fateful button. You’ll lay the groundwork for the upgrade, evaluate your Mac and your apps, and learn how to protect your work in the rare event that something goes horribly wrong.

See the Books menu above for a list of current and older books.

What I’m working on now (as of July 2012):

  • I wrote and had published the Mountain Lion ebook above in just about a week.
  • I’ve recently finished Adobe Dreamweaver CS6: Visual QuickStart Guide, the new edition of our best-selling book. It’s now available.
  • I’m working on a video project to support a Mountain Lion book from another author, as a hired gun.
  • I’m writing some articles for the peachpit.com site. Amazingly, they are about Dreamweaver. Let’s hear it for book promotional tie-ins!
