Acknowledgments

I must give a very special thanks to Rick Kughen at Que. Through the years, Rick is the number-one person responsible for championing this book and the Upgrading and Repairing series. I cannot say enough about Rick and what he means to all the Upgrading and Repairing books. With all that hes been through on this book, I have a feeling I might be responsible for a few gray hairs. (Sorry!)

Id also like to thank Todd Brakke for doing the development editing for this edition, which was fairly substantial considering all the rewrites and new material. His excellent tips and suggestions really helped to keep the material concise and up-to-date.

Special thanks also go to Sheri Cain, who helped tremendously with the editing, and to Mandie Frank, for shepherding the manuscripts through a tight publishing schedule. Id also like to thank the proofreader, illustrator, designer, and indexer, who worked so hard to complete the finished product and get this book out the door! They are a wonderful team that produces clearly the best computer books on the market. I am happy and proud to be closely associated with all the people at Que.

I also want to say thanks to my publisher, Greg Wiegand, who has stood behind all the Upgrading and Repairing book and video projects. Greg is a fellow motorcycle enthusiastsomeday, hopefully, we can go riding together.

All the people at Que make me feel as if we are on the same team, and they are just as dedicated as I am to producing the best books possible.

I would like to thank both my wife Lynn and my son Emerson for helping to produce the DVD that comes with the book. Emerson did the camera work, and Lynn did all of the editing, rendering, and DVD production using the very machine that you see me build in the video. I hope you enjoy the DVD as much as we enjoyed producing it.

Many readers write me with suggestions and even corrections for the book, for which I am especially grateful. I welcome any and all of your comments and even your criticisms. I take them seriously and apply them to the continuous improvement of this book. Interaction with my readers is the primary force that helps maintain this book as the most up-to-date and relevant work available
