I'm not working on this (thank God!), but if you've been stuck with
the job, I can highly recommend two recent special issues of Byte and
PC Magazine. I don't have the issues handy, but both articles were
cover stories over the last 2-3 months, and thus should be easy to
find at your library. Each is excellent in a different way; the PC
Magazine issue has the edge in providing specific details of
planning, and the price is certainly right. They've also got a
special area of their Web site (www. pcmag.com) set up to let you
research the issue in more depth.
