| If this doesn't belong in .general, feel free to just direct it to .publish. As some of you may know, Brinkster.com, which is where I and many other LEGO builders host our websites, has recently announced that it will be adding advertisments to its (...)

|
| As more of a newsreader user, incorrectly formatted FTX code on LUGNET has been troubling me lately. Non NNTP users might not realize, but FTX code formatted like the link below is a pain for NNTP users to just click on and be directed to you link (...)

| (...) Ordering direct from No Starch was fairly painless (so far ;) and it should be here in a week or so according to the email I recieved late last week. I'll be taking it along to the next BUGs meeting if it arrives in time, so there may be an (...) (21 years ago, 27-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.books, lugnet.publish, FTX)

Though as I recall, I'm waiting for something to be finalized from the publisher - I'll check up on that. The Australian distributor ordered very (...)

| I bought a copy yesterday at LegoWorld Zwolle. The price was only 31 Euro's instead of 40 USD + shipping costs. Actually they were all sold out and a new delivery was a bit delayed, but Jaco was kind enough to give me his copy ;-) On my way home by (...)

| (...) Actually, this isn't true, and is a very good example of deceptive advertising on Amazon's part. Add up Amazon's price for the two books individually, and you get the same price they list there. The "discount" is off the standard list price, (...)
