Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks

Thanks to Nathan Torkington, Rael Dornfest, and Chuck Toporek for helping shape and launch this book, and to Ernie Rothman for joining in to make it a reality. Thanks also to Leon Towns-von Stauber for contributing Appendix B. And thanks to Andy Lester, Chris Stone, and James Duncan Davidson for looking over parts of the book. I'd especially like to thank my wife, Joan, and my stepsons, Seiji and Yeuhi, for their support and encouragement through my late night and weekend writing sessions, my zealous rants about the virtues of Mac OS X, and the slow but steady conversion of our household computers to Macintoshes.
