The funny thing is that at full list price the cost of the book is, to
an extremely rough approximation, the same an admin's pay for one hour.

Looked at from one perspective, the purchase price is a tiny part of the
overall cost of the book.

Looked at from another, skim through for one nugget that saves you an
hour or keeps you from overspending on hardware and the book is paid for.

Cheers,
Steve
