I've moved to downtown Raleigh, losing a bit of storage space in the
process.  As a result, it's time to cull the bookshelves.

Some of the following may be of interest to TriLUG and friends...

1. Programming Perl (2nd Ed.)
 - by L. Wall, T. Christiansen, R. Schwartz
 - O'Reilly, 1996
 - AKA "The Camel Book"

2. Sendmail (2nd Ed.)
 - by B. Costales with Eric Allman
 - O'Reilly, 1997
 - AKA "The Bat Book"

3. UNIX System Administration Handbook (3rd Ed.)
 - by E. Nemeth, G. Snyder, S. Seebass, T. Hein
 - Prentice Hall, 2001
 - "Now covers Red Hat Linux!" =)

4. Hacking Exposed
 - by S. McClure, J. Scamray, G. Kurtz
 - Osbourne, 1999

5. The Object Concept

6. Z: An Introduction to Formal Methods (2nd Ed.)

7. Pragmatic Unit Testing In Java with JUnit

Also going to the used book store:
 - The Death Gate Cycle (1,2,3,6), hardcover fantasy
 - Blood Music, by Greg Bear, book club edition
 - The Hobbit, paperback
 - Rendezvous with Rama, Arthur C. Clark, paperback
 - The Book of Dragons, kids short stories
 - Warped Passages, Lisa Randall, theoretical physics

If any of these would find a better home with you than at at the Store
of Unloved Books, drop me a quick email.  I can bring them to the next
TriLUG meeting or let you pick them up where I live near the corner of
Wade and Glenwood.
