Stanley,

Consider calling Nexus http://www.nexuscomputerbooks.com/info.php I know
they are dealing with a discount book supplier, you might have some luck
there. 

Alternatively: www.halfpricecomputerbooks.ca . They're Canadian too.

BTW, I think you'll find a lot of folks will disagree with you (myself
included) about RH 7.3 being "obsolete", it might not be the latest
incarnation of RH, but it's far from obsolete. I believe RH 7.3 is currently
supported and current patches are being provided. For the folks which don't
like Bluecurve (in RH 8.0), it's the version of Linux they're likely using.

 ...my $0.02.

Thanks for your response.

I'm looking for a copy of Barkakati's REDHAT LINUX 7.1 SECRETS
(acceptable) or REDHAT LINUX 7.3 SECRETS (preferred). I can get them at
Chapters for about $75 but that's an awful price to pay for an
out-of-print book about an obsolete operating system.

My thought is that real soon now PCMania is going to start selling them on
their discount tables for $35. I'd like to be informed if and when that
happens.

Mind you, I'm not interested in jumping the queue by buying directly from
PCMania. I'm happy to go the traditional route, i.e., through your cash
register. I'd just rather spend that extra cash on a new bauble or bangle
for my computer rather than waste it on an out-of-date book that I should
be able to get cheaper by now.

Any suggestions?



Peace, health, wisdom and wealth. Live long and prosper.
