Joe Kissell is back, and he has been busy. Joe introduces us to his latest Joe On Tech title, Speeding Up Your Mac: A Joe On Tech Guide, and gives us some samples of things you can do to improve the performance of the Mac you have instead of buying a new one. That’s just the start, though, as Joe walks us through updates to the other three titles on his imprint, Backing Up Your Mac: A Joe On Tech Guide, Maintaining Your Mac: A Joe On Tech Guide and Troubleshooting Your Mac: A Joe on Tech Guide. Joe explains the why’s and what’s of those updates, to help you keep things running smoothly.
