Thanks to everyone who responded. My personal favorite was the one at
Atomic Learning.

I think you can find a few items on this page that may work.......
http://directory.google.com/Top/Computers/Systems/Apple/Macintosh/FAQs,_Help,_and_Tutorials/Mac_OS_X/
or use the tinyurl version..........

I have not taught others how to use OS X, but have found TEACH YOURSELF
VISUALLY from Wiley Publications to be my personal Bible.

I have not looked at the CD that Apple sent to teachers last winter if they
requested the free upgrade to OS X.  I do have a set somewhere and will look
for it  if you think it would be helpful.

I've just received a series of CDs on Mac X --Excel X, Word X and Excel X.
Each is a series of three CDs called MacAcademy.  There is a website on the
CD, macademy.com
and a phone number (386-677-1918).  No one here has used them since OSX
hasn't been
loaded yet so I can't speak to there usefulness.

Check Atomic Learning -- http://atomiclearning.com

Which version of OS X?  For 10.2, Apple made tutorials.  If teachers
used their great deal to get 10.2 at the teacher price last  year (it
was either free or really cheap--- I did it but don't remember the
price), they received the tutorials for free on CD-ROM.  I have the CD
but haven't had a chance to look at it.

If you are a Mac.com member, the tutorials are also available on the
website to those members.

I haven't found great ones for OS 10.1.  There were some at Atomic
Learning, but they may have disappeared when 10.2 came out.
