Not the place..

 

[xyyz]

what exactly do you mean "not the place.."?

 

[xyyz]

anyone find any other links?

i found one that has several books in PDF format, but i don't know if they're legally downloadable, eventhough the site seems legit to me, so i won't include it just yet.

i've also include a few more links that i came across.

BTW, B&N's next session is starting 4/3, so you might wanna take a look at some of their stuff.
