With today's multiplatform, multisoftware, multieverything computing environments, as a computer support professional you???re expected to know everything about every component that makes up your environment. For Apple hardware, this book provides the solution! With lessons keyed to the learning objectives of the AppleCare Service Technician Portable and Desktop Systems certification exam, this guide is both the perfect supplement to Apple's own training class as well as a first-rate primer for computer support personnel who need to troubleshoot Macs as part of their jobs. The self-paced, step-by-step volume begins with an introduction to troubleshooting tools and practices before moving on to an exploration of common hardware and underlying technologies (LCDs, CRTs, networks, and more).
