It's ironic that this comes up. Today I pre-ordered the book from Amazon (it
isn't shipping yet), but I also wrote my own review. I don't know if Amazon
will let it get posted however. I guess since Tom participates in this
newsgroup, I should tell him to his face.
My peeve, is that every review of Tom's yet to be release book is
(hopefully) from associates that Tom (or the publisher) has doled the book
out to before it is officially released. The book *may* actually be as good
as they say, but they all (several people) unanimously proclaim it the best
book they've ever read. This does me absolutely no good at all in deciding
if I should buy it. I wish Tom (or the publisher) would of posted some of
the more negative reviews, if they exist.
Of course my gripe is mute (and apologies in order), if in fact Tom posted
all of the candid reviews of his book and they were all 5 stars. Regardless,
it promises to be one of the first books out, and therefore a must buy. I
promise to post my own review of the book once I read it.
BTW Tom, will the book contain a last minute chapter on the Moscone spec and
some technical discussion of how it will affect us developers? If not, does
anyone know of a book that is coming out soon that will?
thanks,
jim

Check the amazon.com website. There are several reviews posted -- all good.
