Great read!

This book is filled with GREAT information for anyone interested in working with various 'toys' for Linux. I was privileged in being part of a class presented by Tom Weeks in regards to MythTV (he assisted with the chapter in the book) and it is great information! If you are interested in getting the latest information for various additions to your Linux box, then this is a must-have. If you are even interested in any extra features you can configure on your Linux box then you will not be disappointed! WARNING: Your pocket book might suffer after reading this book from all the new hardware you want to buy!

Well written, great topic!

Readers of this book will find it VERY well written. It appeals to everyone, from those more proficient in Linux, to those (like myself) who are still learning. I'd highly recommend this book!

Excellent rescources for us weekend geeks.

This book clearly explains the details needed to accomplish all projects.

Great Book, I can't wait to start building gadgets!

I recently saw Tom Weeks do a Myth TV presentation where you can build your own Linux based PVR, which is covered in his chapter written in this book. This is a great resource for the computer hobbyist, amateur or enthusiast of gadget-lover! Easy to follow and fun to read!

Awesome book

This is a must have book for any of you Linux tinkerers out there. I never bought the first one, but will after going through this book. The projects are very cool and the instructions are easy to follow. Recommended!
