It has who make the trip so special. been a real pleasure working with such a clean applica- tion, especially because it makes it so fun and easy to mess around with video on DV, and so painless to help out friends with quick productions. Thanks also to the team at Sams Publishing, who brought together this book and were great to work with, especially Jennifer Kost-Barker, who got this puppy rolling; Betsy Brown, who kept it on track; Jon Steever, who made sure it all fit together; Mary Ellen Stephenson, who kept the words straight; and Elizabeth Finney, who pushed it to the end. And thanks to Neil Salkind and Studio B for their sup- port and perseverance in developing this opportunity. After all, this is a very exciting time to be in the tech- nology business, especially as digital video becomes accessible and affordable on consumer PCs. I would like to thank Bob Wolenik, Tony Gomez, and Mark Shapiro for the opportunity to cover these developments for Miller Magazines, and Rich Rein and Barbara Fox for the great learning experience of writing for the U.S. 1news- paper in Princeton. And thanks to Andy van Dam and my compatriots back at the Computer Science program at Brown University for making writing a natural part of technology education. 00 0672321661 FM 6/22/01 3:19 PM Page viii Tell Us What You Think!
