    Hopefully selling fast enough that the publisher's will request a sequel.

    I'll send a link from your post to McGraw-Hill's Editorial Board, Bill.

    Shipping appears to be the problem. Amazon.UK didn't get the books until late last week, Kate Moir told me, and because it's an "unknown title" (I thought everyone knows Xara Xtreme!), Amazon went conservative on the number of units they initially accepted.

    Which was stunningly shortsighted: the book sold out in the U.S. Amazon warehouses the first day.

    Sorry, Neo!

    My Best,

    No PDF version? Don't have Kindle and I don't like hardcopies.

    Or any chance it will be put on safaribooksonline.com?

    Sorry, Tellurian.

    It took almost 13 years to get someone to publish it to paper.

    We don't foresee PDF or a Safaribooksonline digital format.

    What about using the free Kindle PC reader software?

    Haven't bought the book yet, although I undoubtedly will. However, I was a little concerned to see this on the Amazon page!

    I admit that is a bit frightening. Changes my perception of the average Xtreme user for the worse I'm afraid, which isn't to say I don't think Susan Boyle wouldn't make a very good vice president.

    Perhaps after reading that other Great American Novelist, folks just want to read some non-fiction?

    I think there may also be some fiction involved with the "Often bought together" lists.
