No kidding, the art on the ciscopress books doesn't do networkers any justice at all. If nothing else, they should draw the guy on the copvers so he fits the techy demographic better: He should have some form of facial hair, he should be slightly overweight, he should have a cigarette in one hand and coffee (or mountain dew) in the other, and there's no way he should be wearing a tie, especially while trying to troubleshoot a connectivity problem. (Possible exception: the "Ties Suck" tie on thinkgeek.com)
As for the women on the covers, they should somehow be depicted as presenting the solution for whatever problem the guy is working on, with the alpha male stubbornly ignoring them. (Wonder how many flames I'll get for this one?)

Priscilla - even a digitised and modified version - has *got* to be better. ;-) (Priscilla's going to be doing a lot of paying out...)

Hey Priscilla, who are you anyways ;-) What was the name of that book you authored? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of dk Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 9:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Who is Priscilla Oppenheimer ?
