Very cool. Thanks for the feedback, guys. It looks like I've got a few
new books to add to my library. I'm not a systems developer so these
should be great introductions. I'm super excited about that second
edition. I just pre-ordered it. Congratulations and many thanks to
Marshall McKusick, George Neville-Neil, and Robert Watson for all
their work. It looks like this will be a great resource for the
community.

Couldn't agree more. Thanks again.
