I was wondering if there are any good MacBook Pro books out there for people, such as me buying my first new MacBook Pro? Something that provides some of the in’s and out’s, along with tips. Maybe some web sites.

I’m thinking that I should wait a bit for more detailed information pertaining to the 2011 generation; however, I am not sure….

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

I don't know why you'd need a buying guide book for a MBP. Not even sure if one exists.

If it's OSX you're curious about thenyoutube has plenty of stuff.

But if you're looking for pros and cons to buying a mac then this is kind of a biased place to be asking.

Here's a good book even though it's not as up to date as what's on the web, nothing has changed much.
