Tracing the personal computer revolution back to the 1960s counterculture, Tony produced a CD-ROM interactive documentary in 1996, Haight-Ashbury in the Sixties (featuring music from the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, and Jefferson Airplane). He also developed the Rockument music site, www.rockument.com, with commentary and podcasts focused on rock music history. As a founding member of the Flying Other Brothers (www.flyingotherbros.com), which toured professionally and released three commercial CDs (52-Week High, San Francisco Sounds, and Estimated Charges), Tony performed with Hall of Fame rock musicians. Tony has also worked as a director of enterprise marketing for leading-edge software com- panies, and as a communications director and technical publications man- ager. Tony offers iPod, iPhone, and iTunes tips and techniques on his Web site (www.tonybove.com). Dedication This book is dedicated to my siblings and cousins, and my sons and their cousins and children . the iPod generation. Author’s Acknowledgments I want to thank John Paul Bove and Jimi Eric Bove for providing technical expertise and performing valuable testing. I also want to thank Rich Tennant for his wonderful cartoons, and Geoff Coryell and Dennis Cohen for technical expertise. And let me not forget my Wiley editors Paul Levesque and Virginia Sanders for ongoing assistance that made my job so much easier. A book this timely places a considerable burden on a publisherís production team, and I thank the production crew at Wiley for diligence beyond the call of reason. I owe thanks and a happy hour or three to Carole McLendon at Waterside, my agent. And finally, I have Executive Editor Bob Woerner at Wiley to thank for coming up with the idea for this book and helping me to become a profes- sional dummy — that is, a Dummies author.
