A couple of netlanders asked me to post a message about dealing with Computer Literacy Bookshop by mail. So here it is. I mailed my order and personal check on 21 Jul (Monday) and received two of the three books ordered on 4 Aug (Monday) two weeks later. The books were shipped Priority Mail and received in very good condition. The two books received are: The UNIX C Shell Field Guide UNIX System Security The currently out of stock book is UNIX System Administrator A note was enclosed saying that this book will be shipped to me as soon as it is received by the Bookshop. All in all, I am very pleased with Computer Literacy Bookshop as a mail order bookstore. IN CONTRAST: I called Guilford Publishers Inc and ordered Contemporary Directions in Psychopathology: Toward DSM-IV using a credit card a while back. They told me that it would take 6 to 8 weeks to get the order cleared and was unable to tell me the exact UPS Blue shipping cost. Experiences like this make Computer Literacy Bookshop look even better. -- Todd Ogasawara, University of Hawaii Dept. of Psychology & U. of Hawaii Computing Center UUCP: {ihnp4,dual,vortex}!islenet! \ \__ uhmanoa!toddo / {backbone}!sdcsvax!noscvax!humu!/ / clyde/ ** I used to be: ogasawar@nosc.ARPA & ogasawar@noscvax.UUCP
