From TNPC issue #4.03...

Coming Soon - Our First TNPC e-Book on CD-ROM

by T.J. Lee
February 8, 2001

A couple of issues back we discussed how our 400+ page book "The Unofficial Guide to PCs" (by T.J. Lee, Lee Hudspeth, and Dan Butler) found itself a book without a series title and was therefore allowed to go out of print by the publisher. We were quite put out over this, but not put off. Taking matters into our own hands we have resurrected what we feel is a really good book. It's jam-packed with information that every computer user should have at their elbow, and we are now close to publishing it ourselves.

The book's new title is "TheNakedPC.com presents: The Book That Should Have Come with Your Computer," which we think is a better title in any event. Its links have been updated and the entire shooting match will shortly be burned on a CD-ROM for distribution. That's right, we're going to publish it ourselves as an e-book on a CD-ROM disc. The book will be in PDF format, which enables us to make the entire text of the book searchable. It can be read on-screen or you can print out what you want as hard copy to your printer.

I'm sure you're asking yourself where can you order this CD? Well, wait, there's more! Not only do you get "The Book That Should Have Come with Your Computer" you get the Official Naked PC Screen Saver (mesmerize your friends, dismay your enemies, be the envy of everyone!). We'll even toss in demo copies of our award-winning PRIME for Office utilities. These include the indispensable PRIME DocLauncher utility that works with *all* Office 2000 and 2002 applications, plus productivity add-ins for Word and Excel 2000 and Word and Excel 97.

The regular price for our first e-book is $29.95 when we ship the discs in just a few weeks. But if you order now, "TheNakedPC.com presents: The Book That Should Have Come with Your Computer" is yours for only $19.95, a whopping $10 savings.
