A comment on Humble book bundle: Linux geek by no starch press.

Might be the first UNIX-focused bundle where I don't pay for the top tier. I'm not even sure I'll go for the $15 tier--everything I want is $8 or below.

Can anyone make a compelling case for any of the books in the $15 tier?

The real price for the book is usually paid in time. The right book at the right time can pay off richly in time and money.

The Book of PF was pretty highly lauded in some comments on another HN thread, maybe a month or a bit more ago.

I'll see whether I can find that thread; I think I commented on it.

P.S. Comment on that thread mentioning it. As I replied, it's also in O'Reilly's Safari online subscription library.

I guess the author has a lot of its content online, as well, maybe in somewhat different form.
