1.0 out of 5 stars It is a rip off!, September 7, 2009

This review is from: Top Open Source Programs - A list and review of the best open source applications (Digital)

This so called "ebook" is a 6 page pdf file. First page contains the book's title and second page copyright and some annoying disclaimer. So all that is there for the list of "Top Open Source Programs" are 4 pages with many typos, badly written English and a sentence or two about each program. A Google search on "Open Source Programs" is more informative than this joke. The "Open source software" page on Wikipedia is better organized and better presented. No wonder one doesn't get to preview this book before purchase. Please don't be fooled by the "From The Editors of SmithRiley" phrase, it is still a rip off and even if offered for free it is not worth your while; a mouse click is too expensive for this "book".
