I hate books! Just when you buy one, they come out with a new edition! Why can't we get change files to books? Or trade-in allowances. This is an excellent book! I will be buying the second edition.

In response to those people who pointed out that Comer's book was not "new", I should have said it was new to me. Be that as it may, you might like to know that volume II will be published April 4th, with the sub-title "Details, Implementation, and Internals" Peter Scott

O'Reilly & Associates [home of the Nutshell books] _does_ give trade-in allowances. If you send them the title page from the old edition, you get 25% off the new one. Now, if we could just convince them to do the definitive TCP/IP book... -- Ken Sallenger ken@bigbird.csd.scarolina.edu #include <disclaimer.h> /* No connection with ORA except as customer */

Not that I wish to complain to loudly, I've bought several of Dr. Comer's books, but it would have been nice to have paperback suppliments for such things as the machine dependent XINU sources or Networking stuff. Or better a disk from the publisher or a card for a disk from the publisher. How many of you have written to publishers to get things you know to exist and gotten a 'real' time response? -- John Clark jclark@ucsd.edu
