Hi Richard and all.

I noted the following quote on one website (a1) selling the book: "Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online."

The price certainly seemed way more than a bit high for "free" material harvested from from the internet. It might be interesting to see if anything from PC made it into the piece.

Nuff said.

Hi again,

My "nuff said" comment just kind of hit me so I am quickly revisiting this tread. This little comment was made in reference to my posting that was above and was not meant in regards to the thread itself. It would actually be interesting to hear comments from anyone who might have, or has seen, a copy of the "book".

I too thought the price was a significant factor.

I'm interested to see what the other 'free sources' turn out to be?

Good old VDM publishing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VDM_Publishing

I can't find it on amazon otherwise I'd order a copy just to see it and likely return it!

Don't judge the book by the cover is true. But it is laughable - a hybrid RTCxTSN on the cover. So sad and funny... Just like Richard "the whistle-blower" said...
