The 27 projects are designed for everyone from beginners to technicians. Each project includes uses, what comparable products are available and what they are likely to cost, instructions for building the device or writing the program, components needed and the cost to build the device, and recommended suppliers. Easy projects involve building simple cables without soldering. Intermediate projects include a network terminator and four switch boxes. The software projects, written in C, test things like links, disks and cables. There are seven advanced electronic circuit projects. Appendices: schematics, components, tools, techniques, electrical standards, shopper's guide, further reading, software listings. Although there are no serious errors, a good technical editor could have improved the material. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

For businesses with limited computer budgets, small PC networks can be assembled quickly and easily, without the help of expensive consultants.
