I have a copy of the 4th Edition (O'Reilly Community Press version) on the O'Reilly shelf in my computer room and it's proven valuable many times. I wish the 10th anniversary edition well and that that the community shares back :-) -T -- "There will come a time when you believe everything is finished.
