Wow.  I got mine yesterday at Powell's Tech (www.powells.com) which
for me is a short drive instead of a web form. :) And I'm annoyed, not
at the book, but because I have precious little time in the next few
days to read it, and I'm already stealing time away from other
projects just to flip a few more pages.

Well written.  Good examples.  Good view from 50K feet down to the
pavement.  Interesting backgrounds to the "why" and not just the
"how".

Yeah, the JPG'ed images suck.  Mark, gotta fix that in second
printing, which should be about three more weeks by my calculation. :)

And now a request... there's a very very very very nice ST advocacy
piece in Alan Kay's foreword to Mark's book.

** Can we get this piece online somewhere to have anti-ST-bigots to read? **

Please please.  Like on www.squeak.org or something?

More detailed review when I can steal away some more time to finish it...
