InformIT is donating several excellent technical books to be given away at this
year's Warpstock convention. InformIT is also making available a special discount
offer to Warpstock attendees only.
Warpstock, Inc. wishes to express our gratitude for this great, information
rich, donation.
These great books come from publishers that are part of the Pearson
Education family of publishers including Prentice-Hall and Addison-Wesley as well
as one from IBM Press.
Eight lucky Warpstock attendees will walk away with one of these great
titles:
-
JavaScript by Example
-
UML for Java Programmers
-
Java Development on PDAs
-
JavaSpaces in Practice
-
Programming Wireless Devices with the Java 2 Platform
-
Applying Enterprise JavaBeans, Second Edition
-
JDBC API Tutorial and Reference, Third Edition
-
DB2 Universal Database V8
That's $370 worth of books to give away! But, what about that discount offer?
InformIT has provided, just for Warpstock attendees, the opportunity
to take advantage of a one-time 35% discount on an entire purchase of books from
any of Pearson Education's family of publishers! A special discount code, provided
via a flier to be distributed with the Warpstock registration packets, must be used
to get this great discount. You could buy $300 worth of books and cover the cost
of Warpstock!
InformIT is a subsidiary of Pearson Education. Their content partners,
also members of the Pearson Education family, include: Addison-Wesley Professional,
Cisco Press, New Riders, Peachpit, Prentice Hall Professional Technical Reference,
Que, and Sams.

-
Patterns for eBusiness, user-to-business topology using WebSphere (IBM Redbook)
-
The OS/2 Debugging Handbook, Using the Debug Kernel and Dump Formatter -- 4 VOLUMES,

That'll make four more lucky Warpstock attendees! The person who wins that last
item (actually four books) will have a real programmer's dreamkit.
Warpstock, Inc. wishes also to express our thanks to Esther and Bill
for their personal donation and to Esther personally for going the extra mile by
arranging the donation and discount offer from InformIT.
