Part of the reason I wrote this book is that I wrote some blog postings that I submitted to lxer, and I got some interesting and encouraging feedback. Well, most of it was encouraging, but all of it was good ideas for me to think about ;-)

The work from those articles have been refined and put into this book.

I'd love to hear what y'all think!

Really, I'm not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect.

I needed to put a bunch of intro text into the book even though for many readers it wouldn't be all that informative.
