Note on Errors

Despite heroic attention to detail, I and the editors at Microsoft Press let a few errors slip by from my original manuscript to the finished first edition of this book. I overlooked a few technical things, slipped up on some others, and learned about still others after the book was in print. My personal favorite was the Special Sauce layer in Figure 3-1, which was a typically lame attempt to introduce humor into the editorial process that went awry when the original draft of the figure made it into the finished book. At any rate, my errata/update Web page has grown to about 30 printed pages, and my desire to start over at zero was one of the main reasons for this edition.

But, sigh, there will still be corrections and updates to be made to this edition too. I ll continue to publish updates and errata at http://www.oneysoft.com for at least the next couple of years. I recommend you go there first and often to stay up-to-date. And please send me your comments and questions so that I can correct as many errors as possible.
