Description

I am a writer, computer collector, Linux/UNIX systems administrator, Linux product manager, and Web developer. In a past life, I was the drummer for various punk, new wave, and rock bands, most notably The Cynics. As a freelance writer, I have written a few books, a number of articles and reviews for Linux Planet and Linux Today, pieces for Linux Format and Mac Format, lots of articles and reviews for Linux Magazine, a short-lived column on PPC Linux for Maximum Linux, various things for MacTech Magazine, pieces on Linux and general computing for Corel's old Linux and small business Web sites, and hundreds of reviews of Macintosh and PC Shareware and Demo software for CMP Media's old FileMine web site.

SUSE Linux 9 Bible, co-written with Justin Davies and Roger Whittaker and available in Jan 2005. This is a good overview and intro to SUSE Linux, which IMHO is the best commercial Linux distribution to use nowadays on x86 boxes. (And their 64-bit support rules!)

Hacking the TiVo, Second Edition, which was released in August 2004. I was quite happy and flattered to be able to update this book and add lots more software and up-to-date information. TiVos are great machines, and this was a fun book to do. TiVo hacker extraordinaire musclenerd did the technical edit for this edition, and was a tremendous help - I can't thank him enough. There are some typos and prosos, but they're all my fault. Errata for the book is available here. Also, if you're looking for parts or information about hacking your TiVo, check out WeaKnees.com. They're knowledgeable, friendly, and have good prices.
