Whilst e-books and tablets may be the current fashion, PDF is still the most portable document distribution format. It would be good if PDFs were made and released -- especially for those of us who do most of our coding whilst disconnected from the Internet and so not able to reach websites.

Apparently Amazon believe that with a Windows product and a Mac OS X product they have 100% of the universe covered. Sadly the "Linux on Desktop" community has no sway. Using Wine is supposed to work, but I can't be bothered with it. I suspect I must be in a community of 1 :-) -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@russel.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
