Cyber Monday

                          Cyber Monday

Monday after Thanksgiving now has the name of Cyber Monday. 
Good for computer nerdy folks looking for computer and book
bargains.  Other delighted shoppers had their day in the sun on
Black Friday.

My Cyber Monday this year was enhanced by the O'Reilly book
company with 60 percent discounts on all ebooks.  I shopped
their website and found 4 computer books I really wanted.
One on Building the Perfect PC, 3rd edition, I have been waiting
for. It was released in late November this year.

These were my four ebook bargains from O'Reilly:
1.  Building the Perfect PC, 3rd edition
2.  Microsoft Expression Web 2 Step by Step, 1st edition
3.  Microsoft Office 2010 Inside Out, 1st edition
4.  Troubleshooting Windows 7 Inside Out, 1st edition

Imediately after completing the purchase online, the message
said these ebooks could be downloaded now.  The mobi version
of each was very quickly into a file on my PC. The Building the
Perfect PC was download in the pdf version also for comparison.
The pdf file is much smaller than the mobi version. Kindle on the
PC was used to start reading these ebooks.  On the PC all of
them show photos and graphics in color if printed that way.
Later when I get my Kindle reader all will be in black and white.
That is a good reason to have the Kindle on the PC softerware
on my computer in case some ebooks have a lot of color.
