Responsible for a network that includes Windows XP computers -- XP Professional or XP Home? You need a book you can turn to whenever you have a problem, and a book that can help you make the most of your network. Microsoft Windows XP Networking Inside Out is that book.

With help from Microsoft insiders, Curt Simmons and James Causey cover every facet of Windows XP networking, old and new. And when you look closely at Windows XP, there are a surprising number of new networking features. Windows Messenger. Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance. Internet Connection Firewall. IE 6 and Outlook Express 6. Simple File Sharing. Each is covered in detail here -- including tradeoffs and limitations.
Even if you manage Windows networks for a living, you’re likely to learn plenty you didn’t know. Were you aware there are third-party products that can speed access to commonly-used IP addresses by eliminating the need for FQDN-to-IP address mapping? Or that you can propagate a set of email and newsgroup configurations to multiple computers by exporting them as .IAF files? Or that you can use the Internet Connection Firewall log file as a “Big Brother” tool to see which sites each of your PC’s users have visited?

You’ll find solid overviews of wireless networking, network security, and performance monitoring. And if you’re a working administrator, you’ll especially appreciate the authors’ troubleshooting guidance on NTFS file permissions. Add it all up and you’ve got a Windows networking resource you can really rely on.

Laptops--call them notebooks, portable computers, or whatever else you like--are tightly engineered items. It's hard to get all the required components to obey stringent performance and power-management requirements, and still fit into a small case. The job usually requires a custom motherboard and other specialized components, and so the laptop owner who wants to upgrade his or her machine faces a much more difficult task than the owner of a desktop machine with a similar wish. One can swap out the hard drive, add more RAM, and make tweaks in software, but almost everything else requires the addition of external components, which kind of defeat the purpose of a laptop. That's the message the reader takes away from Scott Mueller's Upgrading and Repairing Laptops. It's not Mueller's fault that such computers are hard to do much with, and that your best upgrade procedure is often a visit to an auction site.

That said, Mueller does a great job of explaining how laptops work--how the engineers went about cramming all those heat-generating components into those miniature chassis in the first place. He also explains a lot of interesting component theory, such as how magnetic hard drives store data and how various DVD standards differ. The information makes for good reading, and comes in handy when you're shopping. He also demonstrates his skill--long well-reputed among builders and repairers of desktop machines--in teaching diagnostics. He explains, for example, how to test a laptop power supply, and why you should consider it a prime suspect in a malfunctioning computer even if the LEDs come on and the cooling fan spins. A CD-ROM features videos that show disassembly procedures--a strategy that works better than photographs and numbered steps.


Topics covered:
How portable computers work (and sometimes fail to work), and how to diagnose their woes. Sections address general troubleshooting concepts, system disassembly, and various subsystems such as memory, CPU, storage, and video. Coverage of PCMCIA (PC Card) is particularly good.

Book Description:
Beyond cutting edge, Scott Mueller goes where no computer book author has gone before--right past all the warranty stickers, the hidden screws, and the fear factor to produce a real owner's manual that every laptop owner should have on his desk. This book shows the upgrades users can perform, the ones that are better left to the manufacturer, and how to use add-on peripherals to make the most of a laptop. The CD contains one-of-a-kind video showing just what's inside a portable PC. For readers who have ever wondered what goes on inside their portable PC, how to upgrade/repair the portable PC or how to live on the road with it, this is the one must-have book of the year!

Ideal for any Java developer or architect facing today's rich XML-based standards and tools, the second edition of XML and Java: Developing Web Applications delivers a wide and deep tour of the latest in today's XML standards and Java tools used to work with them. Whether you want to gain an understanding of basic or advanced uses of XML, chances are this practical-minded book will fit the bill, with its far-ranging coverage of tools and programming techniques.

The coverage of today's Java XML tools is perhaps unmatched by any text. The authors do a great job at presenting the essentials first, in short, fast-moving, understandable chapters, before ranging farther afield. In particular, the coverage of two of the most important XML APIs in today's Java (SAX and DOM) is a standout here. We also liked the benchmarks that show how SAX can offer faster performance, plus the easy-to-grasp summaries of essential programming APIs for both tools. Beyond the basics, the authors present several advanced techniques, like sending XML over sockets and advanced "tricks" available in Xerces.

After the basics of parsing XML, the book turns to transforming XML using XSLT, again with a no-nonsense, practical tour. Turning toward the server-side, the text presents a quick introduction to JSP and servlets and where XML fits into each. (Readers will appreciate the demonstration of creating XML from an "ordinary" JSP here.) After looking at XML used with databases and messaging, the book focuses in on Web services in a particularly well-wrought chapter that covers all of the relevant standards for today's Web services, including how SOAP is really just an extension of XML messaging for the enterprise.

After looking at security issues with XML (including the importance of using secure sockets), a section on the various ways of defining XML documents (from standard DTDs to XML Schema, Schematron, and even RDF) shows the advantages and design goals of each. Handy reference sections list resources for all of today's leading XML-based tools and W3C XML standards.

While today's landscape of XML standards and tools can indeed be daunting, this text sorts it out with an enthusiastic treatment of the subject filled with practical advice and an expert's take on what working Java developers and system architects need to know when it comes to XML.
