50% O'Reilly ebooks today

[James Dugger]

I love O'Reilly book deals.  Get an account through safari books and any
ebooks you purchase you can go back and re-download in any new formats
available.

What does everyone think about the new announcement from Barns &Noble to
spin off Nook to Microsoft. I see MS trying to jump into the ebook market
and potentially building their own Windows 8 based bookstore.  Any thoughts?
