Acknowledgments

Getting a book like this written, edited, and published doesn’t happen without the help of a lot of people. This book has been an enormous project, and we’d like to extend our thanks to everyone who worked on it. Maureen Zimmerman, our development editor, and Karen Szall, our project editor, both did an amazing job making sure that the book was of the highest quality and that everyone involved turned in their best effort. Bob Hogan, our technical editor, provided a detailed technical review. Thanks also to Martin DelRe for his advice and support along the way.

We’d also like to tip our hats to Daniel Akins, who wrote the defrag.vbs script for running Disk Defragmenter automatically so that it can be scheduled. This tool is included on the book’s CD.

And, as always, thanks to Neil Salkind and everyone else at StudioB for helping put this project together.
