Legitimate concern... -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Small [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 1:07 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Ben, I need new CF books!
It's probably because protecting the content on the internet would be very difficult. If somebody ponies up $25 for an online edition, then he passes the password or whatever to a buddy so he can use the online edition as well, then that guy passes it to his buddies... You know how honest people are when it comes to electronic media. Now if there is a DRM-encrypted electronic book, that may do the trick, but you still would run the risk of some joker hacking the material and distributing it. - Matt Small -----Original Message----- From: Rick Faircloth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 12:29 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Ben, I need new CF books! Yes...I don't see why the online *option* is not available, except for the fact that the publisher would have a fit over profit loss...

Its been a while since I read the WACK (although I need another one now to train a new dveloper I just took on) but one thing I can say for SURE is its better to be able to lay a book flat so you can refer to it at the keyboard. A spiral bound book like one of Ben's is doubtless impossible, but I would be up for a PDF version that I could duplex out and put into a couple of big binders. Rick, my 2nd Edition WACK has 35 chapters and a couple of appendices... At $5 per chapter thats... 8-O Anyway an online version reasonably priced *would* be a nice option. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
