Ah, therin lies the rub (as I believe Will once said). I am a
self-employed developer, I don't work for a company. I can't afford the
time or money for training courses. That's why I'm looking for books.

I actually find that well-written books can often be better than
training courses as you can go at your own pace. The one thing you miss
is the peer-to-peer experience, but that's where Usenet comes in!!

Thanks for the reply
