My understanding is that bookpool is owned by the Quantum books crew.
In the same way they bought Softpro, and then basically shut it down?
I will forward the query to them, I believe they are reorganizing under a new name.

Harris/Chronicle staff Tue Mar 25, 2008, 07:32 PM EDT Cambridge - Quantum Books, the bookstore catering to Kendall Square’s technophiles, is closing its doors. Owner June Kapitan said the store’s warehouse in Wilmington, Mass. will still be open, but the store at 4 Cambridge Center will close this weekend. Kapitan said rising rents, the changing technology landscape of Kendall Square and increasing electricity costs hurt her business. [...] Kapitan plans to have a goodbye party for her longtime customers this Thursday at 5:30 p.m., complete with music, drinks and plenty of books about Java, Windows Server 2008 and C++ programming in the background. Their site, http://www.quantumbooks.com/, also shows a placeholder page. Too bad. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
