Publisher's Synopsis
This guide is a comprehensive introduction to the Sun workstation. It offers readers insights and shortcuts to get started quickly on Sun's desktop computers. Since most users of Sun equipment are engineers, academics, scientists and other technical professionals, the text assumes the user will be needing many of the workstation's capabilities, including multitasking, networking, electronic mail and mass storage back-ups. In the section on the SunView user interace, readers will learn how to set up their own computers to reflect their working environments. Although some knowledge of the UNIX operating system is helpful, it is not necessary. Novices, as well as intermediate users of Sun computers, may benefit from the text.
