OOooooooh!

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, includes the DVD!
879 pages of pure awesomeness!

Actually my sister stumbled on it at a government fund raising where people were dropping their old used books, people would pay them, the money would go for events. This brick of paper was 1 dollar! Probably came from one of the IT guys.

Yeah, it's just a book, but it's full of stuff I didn't even know after 5 years of using linux, hehe. And seeing linux and/or ubuntu books around here is extremely rare.

Expensive book for a dollar. They sell them at microcenter for $60 I think.
