Actually, it looked like a billing error until I recovered from the
|
|
"sticker shock."
|
|
|
|
Folded into the book was a packing slip with invoice attached, for a large
|
|
amount* for 57 copies of Learning Python.
|
|
|
|
Once I realized this was O'Reilly shipping to and invoicing Amazon.com, I
|
|
was amused rather than comatose.
|
|
|
|
*I'm not saying *what* large amount, except to say that at that sort of
|
|
pricing in the industry, it seems odd that Amazon isn't making money.
|
|
|
|
I haven't recovered enough even to skim...but a quick paging (with a stop
|
|
at "Files in action") leads me to say "Looks good, Mark...thanks!"

If nothing is pressing, putter about with this or that.
