The Winn L. Rosch Hardware Bible provides a background on how things work, puts competing technologies, standards, and products in perspective, and serves as a reference that provides quick answers for common computer and technology questions. It functions as a buying guide, telling not only what to buy, but why. It also lays the foundation for upgrading or repairing a computer, but stops short of the step-by-step mechanics of the process. The chief purpose of the Hardware Bible remains educational. Some new features in this edition include rewritable DVD technology as well as Blu-ray Discs, wireless networking including 802.11a and 802.11b, Bluetooth wireless communications, and extended coverage of digital cameras, scanners, and telecommunications...and much more!

One way is by reading the book you hold in your hand. It's designed to help you understand all the technologies that underlie the modern personal computer and all its peripherals that help make it useful. Although you won't be able to design a computer when you're finished (that is, unless you already knew how to when you started), you will know what it takes to design one, how computers work, and how you can work better with them—and get them to do more for you. It doesn't matter if you regard a screwdriver as a tool, an instrument of torture, or a new curiosity you've never before encountered. Even if you have no technical background whatsoever, this book will guide you to a level of understanding that will let you buy, use, and upgrade your computer with confidence. At the same time, you'll find all the technical information that you need to do a school report or business presentation on nearly any current computer topic.

The real reason that scanners have enjoyed such a surge in popularity is that more computer owners now recognize just how useful a scanner can be. More applications that ever make use of your scanner, and the Internet makes it easy to share the documents and images you scan through e-mail or your Web site. Many computer owners are even turning to their scanners for handicrafts, such as creating custom printed items!

I wrote this book especially for scanner owners who want to find out all about what that marvelous piece of machinery can do. You can start from the basics and work your way to the tips, tricks and technology used by scanner experts.

Each chapter in this book has been written as a reference on a specific topic relating your scanner. Note that you can begin anywhere because each chapter is self-contained. Unless you've already had some experience with installing and using scanner, however, I think that you'll benefit the most from reading from front to back. The book also includes a glossary of computer and scanner terms and an appendix with information about manufacturers of scanning hardware and software


TABLE OF CONTENT:
Part 1 - The Scam On Scanners
Part 2 - Surviving The Installation
Part 3 - Bread-And-Butter Scanning
Part 4 - The Lazy Exprert's Guide To Advanced Scanning
Part 5 - The Part Of Tens
