My (preordered) copy came with a little "surprise" folded into the book.
|
|
Stapled together: a packing slip for 40 copies and an invoice for 57
|
|
copies.
|
|
|
|
Once I recovered enough to read, I noted that the packing slip and invoice
|
|
were O'Reilly shipping to and invoicing Amazon. I felt much better then.
|
|
(Or was this Amazon attempting to improve quarterly results? ;-))

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