You know you can also get new ORA books at a 20% discount with a user
group code?  I don't know if PLUG has one, but PASA does and you can use
it.  Check the list archives at http://pasa.portland.or.us for the
forwards I send from O'Reilly.  I think you can also get Cisco Press
books at a discount through PACUG; check the archive:
