About the Author
Doug Lowe has written a whole bunch of computer books, including more than 35
For Dummies books (such as
PowerPoint 2003 For Dummies,
Word 2003 All-In-One Desk Reference For Dummies,
Networking All-In-One Desk Reference For Dummies, and
Internet Explorer 6 For Dummies). He lives in that sunny All-American City of Fresno, California, which isn’t nearly as close to San Francisco as most people think, with his wife and two of his daughters (the other one’s away at college). He’s one of those obsessive-compulsive decorating nuts who puts up tens of thousands of lights at Christmas and creates computer-controlled Halloween decorations that rival Disney’s Haunted Mansion. Maybe his next book should be
Tacky Holiday Decorations For Dummies. (For pictures, check out his Web site at www.LoweWriter.com.)
