  1. Hi, I hace a question for you. Figures that appear in the book Mac OS X Quickstart Guide are colors?

    Thank for the reply.

    • They must be showing the ebook version. I’m not the publisher. I’m the author. I really can’t do anything about the way the book appears on Amazon.com. But I’ll mention it to my editors and maybe they can. Thanks for pointing this out.

      • Sorry, but if you bother to go to the page mentioned in my previous post will be showing the two versions (Kindle Edition and Paperback) both in colors. You as the author of the book can not let this “error” is published by Amazon for an unsuspecting can buy the book thinking it´s color and nor true. So I asket you. Thank you and see if the error is corrected

  2. I think you brought the mistake made in Amazon or the publisher should you require amazon to rectify what shows on the page indicated in my previous post. That is right.
    If you enter the page: http://amazon.com/Mac-10.6-Snow-Leopard-QuickStart/dp/0321635396 show correctly observed that this black and white. Moreover, this book what I have in my possession. I was going to buy yours because I thought it was in color. So I found odd and then my question suggests. Thank for your answers and finish my answers here because i feel term that the error will not be corrected. Whoever buys the book will be an unpleasant surprise.
