[newbie] O'Reilly book

2001-01-01 Thread Abraham Mandac

Shoot. I just won a bid at Amazon.com for the second ed. Got it for $8.99. 
Big mistake. Leaped before I looked [checked out the O'Reilly site and read 
your responses but not until too late]. Now I'm legally obligated to finish 
the deal.

No wonder no one else was bidding!

Oh well. It should still be more than just a little useful. I'm actually 
looking forward to receiving the package.

Learn from my mistake, guys :) -- Abe

It's the end of the millennium. Do you have your helmet on?

The current latest and greatest edition is the third. I have the second 
edition, I believe the third edition has expanded coverage about 
X/KDE/Gnome

The latest edition of O'Reilly's 'Running Linux' is the second edition, right?

Just want to be absolutely sure before I go out to get it.

Thanks -- Abe
