As we roll into summer, we've got another great issue for you to enjoy. We lead off with a wrap-up of the World Event 2005, and also include a special interview with Brian Shepherd on the Pro/INTRALINK 8.0 release. We had originally planned to bring you a story on the development of the Predator unmanned aircraft but unforseen problems have delayed this story to October. Still, we have six useful features in our Tips and Tricks section for your reading pleasure.

In the meantime, feel free to share your praise or criticisms about the magazine with us. You can write me at rick@ptcuser.org.

Best Regards,

Rick Snider
