That's some serious nostalgia value. UNIX Power Tools came out before GNU had a dedicated website (was still hanging off MIT IIRC), pretty sure I used the CD that came with it to install some software.

Think I've owned 1/3rd of these at some point in time. O'Reilly used to be head and shoulders above everyone else in open source/UNIX books.

(I still remember the first time I ever saw a Linux book on a shelf at a bookstore. I feel old.)



Power Tools is a really great book though
