Acknowledgments

I would like to thank my family and friends for their support and encouragement. Thanks especially to my dad for showing me "proper troubleshooting technique" at such an early age and inevitably setting me on the path of the Hacker before I had even seen a computer.

Of course, this book would be nothing without the excellent contributions of all the phenomenally talented hackers contained herein. But of course, our hacks are built by hacking the shoulders of giants (to horribly mix a metaphor), and it is my sincere hope that you will in turn take what you learn here and go one better, and most importantly, tell everyone just how you did it.
