Acknowledgments

Schoun Regan I would like to first thank Dave Pugh for his assistance. As with Volume 1, this book would not be what it is without his tireless help.

I would also like to thank my wife Susan, my editors Whitney Walker and Bob Lindstrom, Serena Herr and Nancy Peterson from Peachpit, John Signa and John DeTroye from Apple, and the rest of the gang at AFP548.com.

Every day, Apple System Engineers and Consulting Engineers work tirelessly to insure their customersfrom all organizations and in all walks of lifeare well taken care of. They are a special breed, and they deserve thanks for all their hard work.

Finally, this book might not exist if it were not for the efforts of Mike Bombich, who almost single-handedly kept imaging alive. Mike is proof that one person can make a difference. His insights into the issues faced by education gave us several essential tools that are used daily by thousands of administrators literally saving them millions of dollars and untold hours of work.

On behalf of everyone everywhere who has ever used Carbon Copy Cloner, NetRestore, or any of the other tools you freely make available, Mike, I thank you very much.

David Pugh To the entire Mac community, thank you. Without this loyal following, what would we write about?

A big thanks has to go out to Bob, Whitney, Nancy, Serena, and the whole Peachpit gang for the opportunity to work with them.

To my wife, Amanda, thank you for tolerating my late nights, for your support through this and many other projects, and for joining me through all these fun times.

Lastly, I can't express enough gratitude to Schoun Regan for introducing me to a whole new world of speaking and writing.
