About the Author

Curmudgeon, critic, and self-described “Windows Victim,” Woody Leonhard

runs www.AskWoody.com , the Web’s single best source of up-to-the-nanosecond

news about Windows and Office — warts and all. Check it out for answers to

your most pressing questions, no-bull analysis of Microsoft’s latest gaffes,

and all sorts of information that you can’t find anywhere else.

With a couple dozen computer books under his belt, Woody knows where the

bodies are buried. He was one of the first Microsoft Consulting Partners and a

charter member of the Microsoft Solutions Provider organization. He’s a one-

man major Microsoft beta testing site and delights in being a constant thorn

in Microsoft’s side. Along with several co-authors and editors, he’s won an

unprecedented six Computer Press Association Awards and two American

Business Press Awards.

Woody currently lives with his son and two dogs in Phuket, Thailand, where

he’s working on an action-adventure novel set in Saudi Arabia. Most mornings

you can see him jogging on Patong Beach with the dogs, and then guzzling a

latte at Starbucks. Feel free to drop by and say, “Sawadee krap!” Microsoft hit

squads, please take a number and form a queue at the rear of the building.

About the Contributors

Justin Leonhard drew recognition as the first teenager to publicly crash

Office XP. He put together the main peer-to-peer network used in this book,

tested it with the toughest applications Windows XP handles — games — and

generated several interesting bug reports in the process. He was admitted to

Mensa International at the age of 14, works sporadically on his PADI Rescue

Diver certification, and spends his spare time playing video games. Justin has

developed a singular knack for, uh, challenging his teachers.

Pakdee Noosri (“Lek”) claims the #1 spot as Woody’s Research Assistant.

He’s also the lead Webmeister for www.AskWoody.com . Lek holds a degree in

Computer Science from Prince of Songkla University, Phuket Campus. He’s an

accomplished swimmer, Thai comic book guru, photographer — and one of

the nicest people in the business.

Guy Wells knows wireless like the back of his hand. He also built the

advanced Windows Media Center PC used in this book, from scratch, all by

himself. A tinkerer of the first degree, Guy sometimes remembers to put the

screws back in the case. He often hangs out on eBay and other places of ill

repute. A frequent international traveler, he’s in the process of earning his

Dive Master certification.
