CD
of the book of the Internet list of PC interrupts.
It has been extended to include Network Interrupts and a few hundred others
that have surfaced since those books were published.
CD is exactly the right medium for this kind of material but
I must question the price. CD production is cheap, much
cheaper than a book. I would have been much happier to have seen this
product at half the price, that is what it would have been had it been
produced by a specialist CD publisher. Unfortunately I
suspect that its sale volume will also be down because I do not think
bookshops are the right place for such a product, at least not yet.
The product is useful (the book is one of the those that I often refer to in order to answer questions from members) but I hope Addison-Wesley will take another look at the price.
