Acknowledgments
I don’t even know where to start, so I’ll start at the beginning.
Thanks Mom and Dad, for pushing me to pursue my passions.
Thanks Gary, for starting me down this path in 1993. I miss you.
Thanks Adam, for having big ideas and taking a chance on me.
Thanks to everyone at Windows IT Pro Magazine—past and present—for an amazing
decade of growth and change.

Thanks to Jeff, Aimee, and Brittany at Lenovo. You are the best.
Thanks to Allen, Glen, and Marco at HP. My infrastructure is built on your stuff, and I
appreciate all your help.
Thanks, Stephanie, for believing in me and for giving me the time and space I need to get
this kind of thing completed. As always, you are the glue that makes our family work.
Thanks to Mark and Kelly for understanding about the missed baseball and softball
games. You both make me smile every day.
Thanks to Rafael for joining me on this confusing, busy, and stressful adventure. It’s nice
to have a true co-author for a change, one I can trust with anything, bounce ideas off, and
truly collaborate with. Welcome aboard.
Thanks to Kevin and Jen at Wiley for all your help. Hey, we finally got one done on time!
Also, thanks to Katie, who has moved on to bigger and better things, and to all the editors
who worked on this title. Thanks, too, to Carol for your invaluable help. You know why.
Thanks to Lucas for always being ready to find the answer. Thanks, too, to all my friends
and acquaintances at Microsoft and Wagged who helped me along the way.
Finally, thanks to my readers and listeners from around the world. I’ve enjoyed the conversa-
tions and hope they continue well into the future. It’s been a fantastic ride, but what makes
this fun isn’t so much the products as it is the relationships you make along the way.
—Paul
A very special thanks to my parents, for letting me consume their food and electricity
while working on this title night and day. I love you both!
A gut punch for Paul, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to his series of books
built by users for users. I look up to him. So should you.
A hug and a kiss to my girlfriend, Jenny, for being a proud and incredibly supportive
super-nerd, and for making me the happiest guy alive.
A special shout out to my friends Morgan and Jimmy, in ice cream heaven Vermont!
Chunky Monkey, baby!
A salute to Kevin, Jen, and all the folks at Wiley for tolerating our delays and helping us
push the book out on time. Without them, you wouldn’t be reading this. Seriously.
And finally, a thumbs up to all my readers around the world. I enjoy writing for you all!

To the people that spam me. I hate you.
—Rafael
