  1. Other "Black Book" titles on Michael Abrash's Black Book For Download · · Score: 2
    I coauthored "Oracle8 & Windows NT Black Book" a while back (3 years ago), and it was recently taken out of print. Yeah, it's dated, but a lot of the topics still apply to Oracle8i. Even if you're not an NT person, you'd still learn something about Oracle from reading the book. Trouble is, you can't read it anymore.

    Would anyone here be interested in "open-sourcing" this title? If so, maybe I/we can work on lobbying Coriolis (the publisher) to do so. I have no further financial interest in it, and Coriolis obviously doesn't - so if you like this idea, please reply.

    Thanx... -Mike C.

    (PS- *please* don't reply if you want to debate the merits of NT vs. *nix, or Oracle vs. other DBMS's. My purpose here is to contribute something that might be useful, not get into a flame war.)
