Rezensionen

Thank goodness for tech writers like Michael W. Lucas, who have senses of humor and aren't afraid to show this off in their books. Most tech books are as much fun to read as the ingredients on a box of breakfast cereal -- not this one. If you are running (or planning to run) OpenBSD, you will want this.

If this book has come across your path, do yourself a favor and pick it up. It's worth every penny.… (mehr)
