If you've heard the phrase, "You can't take it with
you," you may have thought, sadly, that it referred to your
trusted shelf of O'Reilly Unix books. Thorough, reliable,
and all encompassing, these books are unfortunately not
especially portable en masse--unless, of course, you have a
copy of the Unix CD Bookshelf.
The Unix CD Bookshelf keeps all the books you've
come to rely on right at your fingertips, wherever you may
go. Version 3 provides convenient online access to seven
indispensable books:
- Unix Power Tools, 3rd Edition
- Learning the Unix Operating System, 5th
Edition
- Learning the vi Editor, 6th Edition
- Mac OS X for Unix Geeks
- Learning the Korn Shell, 2nd Edition
- sed & awk, 2nd Edition
- Unix in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition
--all from your CD-ROM drive.
The CD has a master index for all seven books and a
powerful search engine--and all the text is extensively
hyper-linked--so you can find what you're looking for
quickly. Packaged with the hard copy of
Unix in a
Nutshell, Third
Edition, it takes up less than two
inches of
bookshelf space, and when you're on the run, you
can just grab the CD and go. The seven books included on
the CD --well over 3,000 pages of useful O'Reilly reference
and tutorials-- if purchased separately, would cost more
than $330 (US), but the
Unix CD Bookshelf, Version 3
retails for only $129.95.
The
Unix CD Bookshelf packs a stack of essential
Unix books into one comprehensive, immensely convenient,
and portable small package. Next time they say that you
can't take it with you, you'll know better.
