Les, you don't know O'Reilly? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you. Almost
every programmer I know, and every admin, had somewhere between one
O'Reilly book and a full shelf of them. (No, I'm not getting a kickback
from O'Reilly).

He became a publisher, as I understand, in the late eighties, when he put
out  five volume set, co-written by him, on working with and programming
X. They actively encourage group book buys - I've both participated in
them, and once set up one, back in the nineties (never again, trying to
get 20 or so folks to pass in the selections and money....). The discounts
hit very quickly, starting at 10 books (10%? 15%?) and once you go over 50
books, I think, from there to 199 books, it's a 45% discount off cover.

I know he's in wikipedia....
