His book was worth the $40 I payed , always looking stuff up

is it worth getting the book even though its online?

 

[Batz]

Well I think so , I tend to sit and read through the book , would'nt do that online

lots of people have trouble reading through lots of text on a computer screen (myself included). however, after paying for two homebrew books already and all the info that is available online, i cant see myself paying for another reference for a while. from what i have seen though, it is worth consideration.

Likewise, i Think it has more? Eg online is version 1, the book is Ver 2?

also you cant beat picking up a book to look at somthing,rather than stuffing about on the net
