What caught my attention about your post is "atypical programmer".

What a difference a space makes. :-)=20

Oooh yeah, thanks for pointing that out. I've just reported
those MAJOR COPYRIGHT PIRATES to cali@oreilly.com. Here's to hoping that
they get shut down very soon now.

Sir, how do you sleep at night? You personally offend me now.
You've just taken money DIRECTLY out of my pocket.

Sheesh.

In fact, let me take this one step further. I've been told recently
(although I might be misremembering) that O'Reilly will publish NO
MORE CDs because of rampant piracy.

How does it feel to be a cog in the wheel of the end of an era?

So, no more nice CDs. Just dead trees. Lots of em.

You deserve the money too. You've helped a lot of people, including myself
learn. And you posting in this list is a testament to your generosity.

Pirating books is even more stupid considering almost all of the basic books
you need you can probably find at the library.

And the fact that they want to sell Safari subscriptions
has nothing to do with it, right? ;-)

I think it is unfortunate that no more CDs
will be created -- but then again once a
book is printed or a CD is burned:

"It is Out-of-date"

"Living" on-line media (like safari et al)
is the only way to keep ahead of the curve...

They are in business.

Creating, Oraginzing, and Maintaining Content is
the SECOND largest expense a company will need
to budget.

Personnel training being the top consideration;
if they wish to maintain a well trained and
compititive work-force.
