My apologies for being somewhat off-topic, but I'd just like to jerk
my knee: not everybody here may be aware that many people think Amazon
are bad, and are boycotting them.

Amongst the evil things they do:

* Gross patent abuse. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/amazon.html

* `Accidentally' charge their regular customers *more*.

* Send spam. http://www.panix.com/~iayork/amazon.html

That's before we even get into arguments about on-line booksellers
putting bookshops out of business. Pick another on-line merchant - at
least when you recommend one to other people in a forum like this one.

Thanks,
Ian.
