RCL 20 - Nice little thing Message #1 Posted by Johnny Bjoern Rasmussen on 16 Apr 2004, 4:30 a.m. Wow - I'm looking forward for the weekend. Have just returned from the bookstore at my work, bringing with me RCL 20 by Mier-Jedrzejowicz Ph.D. and Wales. When the twins are put to bed, I'm gonna sit in my best chair with my legs up, having a nice cup of coffey, enjoying this fine little wonder. Thanks to the authors - it looks great from the first impressions. Johnny

I enjoyed the 41 chapter the most (of course), one of the quotes from one of its designers: "the last calculator the user could fully comprehend" (or something similar)...

I still chuckle over Dean Lampman's (now sadly passed away) recollections of buying the first 35 "Lampman's trying to buy toys" - lol

Re: RCL 20 - Nice little thing Message #7 Posted by Wlodek Mier-Jedrzejowicz on 16 Apr 2004, 11:28 p.m., in response to message #6 by Guy François Hi, it's nice to see people are still "discovering" RCL 20. I hope you have as much fun reading it as Frank and I had preparing it. We were incredibly lucky (and honored) to get articles from stars such as Bill Wickes and Dean Lampman. Amazon _should_ have it both in the UK and in the US - thanks for the warning that they do not have it in the US. I hope Dave does not mind my saying that should all else fail, it is OK to email me or Frank (frank@limov.co.uk) to order a copy. And if you are not happy with it, let us know what else should be in the sequel :-) Thanks, Wlodek
