... I bought three books in this series - this, Web Applications in the Microsoft.NET Framework and The Microsoft.NET Framework - all three went straight back to Amazon, since there's nothing here that hasn't been around since last summer - I have rarely felt so ripped off. Mostly these books are transcripts of interviews that you can find on the site anyway - there's nothing of interest to developers that you don't already know in far greater detail already. I wouldn't pay five bucks for these, never mind thirty. Shame on you Microsoft.
