Create an Engineering Workstation that Meets Your Needs, on Your Terms, for
Less Money

Book makes it simple to put a system together--or just spec it out

BLUE RIDGE SUMMIT--The new book, Configuring a Customized Engineering
Workstation, will allow engineers, architects, drafters, and technical
illustrators to put the money they otherwise would have spent on a
technician into the workstation of their dreams by assembling it
themselves. Author Harley Bjelland provides all the information necessary
for configuring two distinctly different levels of workstations: A
baseline workstation capable of limited drafting, routine calculations,
and occasional CAD; and a full-fledged workstation capable of complex
calculations, full CAD/CAM, and complex designs.

Assembling a custom-made EWS may sound daunting, but according to Bjelland,
it's easier than one may think, and usually can be done in only a few
hours with no special expertise or tools just a screwdriver and a pair of
pliers. Here, he takes the fear out of failure by providing specific
step-by-step instructions, checklists, photographs, and illustrations to
supplement his expert advice. He recommends component brands and models,
and even tells readers what questions to ask vendors all to make sure they
get the best components and workstation for their needs. Readers will
learn to install:

* RAM chips
* Printers
* Modems
* Hard and floppy drives
* Scanners
* Tape backup systems
* Motherboards
* CD-ROM drives
* Faxes
* High-resolution monitor/graphics cards

Includes coverage of workstations operating in a local area network
