And here I was complaining about the price of vista

Shelled out $139 for a vista upgrade and then here I go and spend more than that for a blasted CD-ROM with only information to read. OK, OK, this is a very unique CD-ROM, thousands of pages of information on the subject but still - wow what a price to pay. At least I got it on discount - today was the last day for it. Saved $30. I could have saved more with the book but the book does not include nearly as much information and that book has over 3,000 pages in it.

Here's what I ordered: CRC Press Online

Here's the "less expensive" book:
CRC Press Online

I'm going to be very busy reading over the next 11 months.

Sounds like good "job security" because it's a great field these days...

By the time your finished reading, all the protocols will likely be changed
