I guess I'm kind of weird, I work with computers but I can't stand reading anything for any length of time off the screen, I like having a book/magazine/newspaper in my hand. Thank you for putting out the Handbook and adding another FreeBSD publication out there. And when a new version of the Handbook (as well as The Complete FreeBSD) is available, I will be sure to have my company order several copies.
