Awesome, Bob -- thanks for the tip!  I also suggest burning it onto CD,
which is more aerodynamic as well as easier to carry.  = )

On a related topic, I was perusing a recent books.slashdot.org review
(Managing Linux Systems with Webmin) and was impressed to see Bruce
Perens' active involvement with those threads... anyone interested in
Bruce or his publishing group's methods might enjoy it:

http://books.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/10/02/1551210&mode=thread

also, he points users to http://phptr.com/perens/ for electronic contect
(PDF and editor file!) although he notes that release is after a delay
to protect the retail pipeline
(http://books.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=80815&cid=7145178)

His Open Source Series uses the Open Publication License:
http://www.informit.com/redir.asp?destination=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Eopencontent%2Eorg%2F
("an Open Source compatible book license")

cool -- hooray for free bytes!

Regards,

   Ben
