Mac OS X is a wonderful combination of the power and flexibility of Unix with the ease of use that seems to come only from Apple. Between the tools baked right into the system, a veritable cornucopia of third-party applications, and a cottage industry of customizations, tweaks, and hacks, the Mac is a force to be reckoned with like never before. Mac OS X Panther Hacks celebrates the Macintosh's adventurous spirit, inviting the citizen engineer on a quest of deeper discovery -- both with the purpose of going further and simply enjoying the ride. Mac OS X Panther Hacks continues the tradition started with Mac OS X Hacks, sitting squarely at the peculiar confluence of deadly earnest optimization and creative (albeit sometimes wacky) tweaking you seem to find only on a Mac.
