Anybody seen the new A/UX book?

I looked through it in a bookstore yesterday.  Not recommended unless
you need your hand held very tightly.  If you know what "ls" output
looks like, or know how to read the Apple manuals, pass it by.  It is
just another in the mounds of poor "unix for the novice" books.  It
seems to be a long time out of date, too, since the only stuff it
mentions is what came standard in A/UX 1.0, and the StarNine
utilities.  (It does talk about 1.1 and how Apple bought and crippled
the StarNine stuff for it, but doesn't mention X windows for example).

    Just say *yes* to drugs.  Use your *no*s for government bullshit.
