Yes, I have seen the master's works reprinted by Overlook, though I didn't know they were reprinting all of them. That is sheer bliss; I only hope the project goes to completion, or at least through Love among the Chickens; what can I say, I'm a Ukridge fan. Getting back to computing books, I am a member of the O'Reilly cult as well, particularly since I moved to OS X at home. I've even saved my old Fortran 77 book from college, which may be giving away my age more than I'd care to think about. And while I think ebooks are great, there is something viscerally pleasing about the smell and feel of an old book by Mencken or Saki that adds to the reading experience. Silly, but there it is.
