I just looked at my copy. It uses pdf .... Acrobat is even on
the CD as well. When I get the chance I'll peek at it on this Linux
machine, but I will be surprised if its not readable - at least in part.
Costs around $40; not as user friendly as the hard copy, and it is more
portable, (but only if you normally lug a pc around with you.)

The Antenna Handbook is also on CD, and its in pdf as well, but now I
have it, I prefer the paper edition for ease of bedtime browsing. (At
this location I can only dream about antennas).
