A quick check shows your correct about pricing. Best price I found (used) was
$99.95 Original price marked in this one is $49.95.
I guess I better appreciate the guy who loaned me this one.
It isn't old, first release 1992. It is full of interesting information, but
that's a pretty steep price.

Its amazing what you can do if you don't know it can't be done.

I am sure that is an interesting book, but when I checked Amazon they
had 5 *used* ones starting at *149 bucks*. Think I will pass, who has
one to let me borrow, lol...
