Why bother buying books when everything is there?

Hey, there is something like a general thought that I need to discuss with you guys. What the heck are you looking for in books? I have taught myself Perl and created many (powerful) perl programs, but never, never have I needed to read anything in a book. Everything is online, my friends. So why bother buying books? Just for the heck of being part of the "consuming society"? Without me, then! Somebody posted a message about Tom's object-oriented tutorial for perl. THANKS. It is now resting in my reference bookmarks set. You prefer reading stuff on paper? Print it, then. Searching is what people need to learn on the Internet. Because: - the problem you are facing in your programming project has 95% chance of having been faced by somebody before you - searching can be time consuming but with little experience gives you, FOR FREE, all the information, examples, that you need. Of course, don't try to look for relevant information in microsoft knowledge base:-) Ok, back to my sexy Perl program now...
I have had this camera for a while right now. If you are looking for very high quality pictures, this is the one to buy right now. I think that the price dropped down a lot since I bought it (a year ago): it should be around $500 if you go to PriceWatch. The only thing I can say about it is that it is EX-CEL-LENT.
