*If* I could only buy one MindStorms book, which is better, Dave Baum's or
Jonathan Knudsen's?

Does anyone have both and can compare them?

My book isn't out yet, but its getting pretty close.

From what I've seen, its clear that Jonathan and I took very different
approaches to writing about Mindstorms.  Jonathan covers a number of
advanced topics (such as pbFORTH) that I don't cover at all.  On the flip
side, I put a *lot* of mechanical design material and projects in the book
(about 400 pages and 300 illustrations).
