Would have to agree... was browsing Borders, Bondi Junction and they have possibly the most woeful selection of IT books (with the exception of MS Office, and social engineering crap on blogging and iPods). They're trying to palm off Dreamweaver 4 texts as current to give you some idea. The shelves for Mac are covered in Panther books (Tiger is the current release and Leopard is due out in a month or so). The list of tragedies goes on. I love a good technical book -- a real one that is.. still haven't managed to buy into this eBook concept. I guess its Amazon all the way these days. -- geoff http://www.daemon.com.au/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
