Summary: Who said computer gaming didn't require social skills?
Comment: As someone who has hosted a number of LAN parties, I found the book to be very helpful for the seasoned hosts as well the first time host.
The book is well written and organized to allow readers to quickly find information that is pertinent to their plans. It covers all aspects of setting up a LAN Party from the small friendly gathering to a large professional event. It covers all of the technical aspects as well as all of the social and logistic issues that each type of LAN Party must deal with. It also provides realistic expectations for the hosts to have from each LAN Party.
"LAN Party : Hosting the Ultimate Frag Fest" is a must read for the first time LAN host and is highly recommended to the seasoned host as well.

Summary: An excellent guide to making it all work
Comment: Yeah, I've hooked a few PCs together to go head-to-head with buddies, but getting more than that organized? No chance. We've talked about it, but who wanted to do the legwork? Now, the legwork's done. This book covers everything, from putting it together to making a big party work. There's security information and stuff we just wouldn't have thought about. We're getting ready to set up a frag fest, thanks to this book. Awesome!

Summary: Not so pointless
Comment: A compilation of all the knowledge needed to host a killer LAN party without having to search through thousands of web sites on the subject has got to be a good thing.
Ever tried taking a website to the store to use as a reference when buying equipment? Why waste all that time searching websites and gathering information, organizing it all into something easy to read, and then printing it all off for easy reference? Just buy the book.
Even if you do like to do your own searches, this book should still make a handy reference for those times when you're not at your computer and want access to the information.
[...] The fact is not everyone knows how to perform a good web search. Some people find it easier to read text off a page rahter than off a screen.
If you're going to throw a LAN party, get this book.
