About the Author

Doug Lowe has written a whole bunch of computer books, including more

than 35 For Dummies books (such as PowerPoint 2003 For Dummies , Word 2003

All-In-One Desk Reference For Dummies , Networking All-In-One Desk Reference

For Dummies, and Internet Explorer 6 For Dummies ). He lives in that sunny

All-American City of Fresno, California, which isn’t nearly as close to San

Francisco as most people think, with his wife and two of his daughters

(the other one’s away at college). He’s one of those obsessive-compulsive

decorating nuts who puts up tens of thousands of lights at Christmas and

creates computer-controlled Halloween decorations that rival Disney’s

Haunted Mansion. Maybe his next book should be Tacky Holiday Decorations

For Dummies. (For pictures, check out his Web site at www.LoweWriter.com .)

To Debbie, Rebecca, Sarah, and Bethany.

Author’s Acknowledgments

The list of thank-yous for this book is long and goes back several years. I’d

like to first thank John Kilcullen, David Solomon, Janna Custer, Erik Fafforn,

Grag Robertson, and Ray Marshall for all of their help with the first edition.

Those who worked on subsequent editions include Tim Gallan, Mary Goodwin,

Joe Salmeri, Jennifer Ehrlich, Constance Carlisle, and Jamey L. Marcum,

Jeanne S. Criswell, Ted Cains, Jamey L. Marcum, Danna Lesh, Rebekah

Mancilla, Becky Huehls, Amy Pettinella, Suzanne Thomas, Garret Pease,

and Andrea Boucher. Each of these people made valuable contributions

to the content, readability, and accuracy that have paved the way for the

current edition.

Now, for the seventh edition, I’d like to thank project editor Christopher

Morris, who did a great job overseeing all the editorial work that was required

to put this book together. I’d also like to thank Dan DiNicolo, who once again

gave the entire manuscript a thorough technical look-through and offered

many excellent suggestions, and copy editor Barry Childs-Helton, who maid

sure there whir know spelling hair ores. And, as always, thanks to all the

behind-the-scenes people who chipped in with help I’m not even aware of.

Oh, and I’d also like to thank Becca Freeman. She didn’t have anything to

do with this book, but I thought it would make her happy to see her name

in print.
