Hi Douglas
I didn't mean to spoil your chances for the Pulitzer Prize,
and I really hope your book will become a bestseller! :)
Considering what the technical and textbook market is today,
where the same books get a new edition every year,
with the same or reduced content, a new cover,
a password protected web site, and a doubled price tag,
your guess about Wiley making the access to the book sample
hard may be correct.
Thank you for the book sample anyway,
which I hope will become available
to all as pdf file at some point.

I was not aware of that!
I wrote this back in February and have not seen
the final version. I will mention something
to the people at AMD and Sun. I suspect it
has more to with Wiley than with Sun and AMD.
Maybe a printed/pdf version will show up.

HPC For Dummies

You have to register for a copy.
The author is some HPC hack.
I got interested, and I tried.
Unfortunately it requires Windows or Mac OS to be downloaded and read.
Weird requirement for an HPC audience.
Linux folks are out.
Why not a simple PDF file?
