Title: Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0: Deluxe Learning (Deluxe Learning) Publisher: Microsoft Press Authors: Rating: 5/5 This set provided me with a great jumpstart into VB 6. Inside of a month I have learned what I need to move on to ASP, COM and DCOM and have also used VBScript to make my web work shine. I used to wonder what everyone was talking about at technet conferences and at work, but now I can hold my own in a conversation. Not to mention write some pretty cool apps. Great Deal !

Title: Managing Projects with GNU make, 3rd Edition (Nutshell Handbooks) Publisher: O'Reilly Authors: Robert Mecklenburg Rating: 4/5 I'm taking an operating systems class. As part of that class, we had to modify an existing operating system. To do that required modifying the makefile system to add our modules. I tried understanding make from the man pages and tutorials on the web. They are either a reference or cover too small a subset of tasks. This book covers the topic thoroughly but in an instructional manner which is easy to learn from. My only complaint is that sometimes there is functionality talked about without accompanying examples. That makes it hard to understand how things work together.
