@djsumdog A very fine specimen!
And this one was the start of it all for me. Never had the original box though, I think it might have been an add-on CD to some book or magazine. It's really ancient, I think it still had kernel 1.x and even some stuff in a.out binary format. Like Abuse the game. A lot of GUI stuff was using Tcl/Tk.
It's interesting that the way we document and learn software today has changed so much it's really made these types of books practically obsolete. The tech section at most book stores is small to non-existent.
@djsumdog Yup, completely useless from the practical perspective, but an interesting read from historic one. I've recently found a book on "AJAX" from back when it was the buzzword. Of course it's obsolete, but still an interesting read and provides some insight on how we got to the state we are in today with the Web.
Some tech books do age well though, like Knuth's books and most Tanenbaum's, the K&R C book and Pike's Practical Programming — these never get old.
