The main advantage, as I see it, with ordering directly from the publisher here is that you will get the electronic version right away, DRM-free. So if you want physical copies, I would encourage you to get them through your local bookstore. For electronic copies, I think the best option is to go to nostarch.com and order from there. I suspect other ebook outlets could add their own DRM, but frankly I have not checked. For physical copies, if you have the patience for it, you could of course try to approach me at one of the upcoming BSD conferences, where I will have some to hand to sell for beer money :) All the best, Peter -- Peter N.
