Title: Exchange Rate advantages
Post by: Kerry on October 29, 2007, 10:51:15 PM

The really good thing about the improvement in exchange rate between the $au and $us is that books are now cheaper (considerably) at Amazon for me than previously.

wheeee .. my first delivery just turned up.

Hi Kelie,

well, orders were a week and a bit apart actually ..
2 of us reading ..
and we read them in bits as needed .. not cover to cover immediately necessarily.
.. so it may take 2 months till they go on the shelf.

>>>  the 4th edition 
noticed that .. but it's for VS2008 with NET 3.5 and I'm not ready for that yet

... it's going to take a bit to catch up 'cause I haven't c#'d for a while.
