Windows Server 2003/2000 Terminal Server Solutions 3rd Edition
This book brings together all the insights, knowledge, and step-by-step guidance you need to deliver robust, scalable, and stable server-based computing solutions with Microsoft Windows Terminal Services and Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0.
This book best serves the Windows administrator who wants to analyze, plan, test, and implement a server-based computing solution running Windows Terminal Services with or without MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0. It focuses on the entire project life cycle, from properly assessing the needs of an organization and planning all aspects of the deployment (not just how to build a Terminal Server) right through to the actual implementation and support. The book is full of implementation examples, from server security to group policy creation and from patch management to client deployment. While I try to encompass all major aspects of a Terminal Server implementation, there are some areas where I provide only tertiary coverage and/or assume that you're already familiar with (or are readily able to learn) that area.
Working through this book from beginning to end will instill the knowledge necessary to successfully implement a Terminal Server/MetaFrame environment of any size. After reading this book, you will have the knowledge and understanding necessary to make smart choices about your new Terminal Server/MetaFrame implementation or about the changes necessary to better stabilize an existing environment that you've been tasked with managing and supporting.

Getting StartED with Mac OS X Leopard
This book offers a simple to read, fast way to discover all that's new in Mac OS X Leopard, and how to make the most of it, whether you are new to the Mac, or simply upgrading from a previous version of Mac OS X.
New additions to the operating system are showcased, including the changes to the Dock and Finder, and new features such as Stacks, Cover Flow, and Quick View introduced, before the book moves on to give a basic guide to using the Mac—creating folders, moving files, installing applications, and burning CDs, for example.
Communication and organization are covered with chapters on Mail and iChat, including information on how to get the most of the latest features such as creating to-do items, and reading RSS feeds in Mail, and sharing screens in iChat. There are chapters that cover Spaces and Time Machine, perhaps the most talked about feature in this release of Mac OS X.
iLife is fully dealt with, with discrete chapters on iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and iDVD, and GarageBand, followed with a chapter on iWeb showing how to share your creations, and using Front Row to be entertained by them.
The final chapters of the book give an overview of some more advanced areas of using a Mac, namely how Mac OS X itself works, and also how to develop for the Mac. These chapters are intended only to give a glimpse as to the possibilities—the book is primarily aimed at regular users.
A number of appendices conclude the book, one providing a guide to those users who are switching from Windows, and another that contains a useful list of recommended Mac applications for a wide array of uses.
In the authors own words "This book isn't a bible or tome about how to do anything and everything with Mac OS X, instead its goal is to introduce the major features of Mac OS X so you can be up and running quickly".

Building PDA Databases For Wireless And Mobile Development (with code)
Portable wireless mobile computing is the ability to retrieve information from the main computer system and/or repository of information on a wireless device at anytime and anywhere. An obvious plus here is the ability to also enter or update information on those main computer systems remotely via our wireless device. This gives us all the freedom to theoretically manipulate all information from afar.
The specific type of wireless devices used in our portable wireless mobile architecture is the Personal Digital Assistant, better known as the PDA. The usage of these types of devices is growing at an alarming rate. In the next five years, most cellular telephones will have Internet capabilities, and a large number of individuals will be porting a PDA of some sort.
The goal of this book is to introduce to you, the reader, how to build databases on personal digital devices to be used with PDA applications. Of course, we also try to show how to build PDA applications to use the data within the database.
This book was written for programmers, technical managers, technical architects, and anyone wanting to learn about PDA database applications. If you want to learn the basics, this book will certainly give you that. If you require a reference or a "how to" manual, again we hope this helps.
