Wow, I guess I should pay better attention to all those annoying emails
Packt sends me. That'll make a good portable copy since I tend to keep
the real version on my bookshelf at home. :)

This is good advice, by the way. Greg's book is great, especially for
newly minted DBAs who might have trouble deciding on where to start.
Though from what I've been seeing on the list recently, they need to
have him update it for 9.2 and 9.3 with all of the changes in the last
couple versions. There are also a ton of considerations regarding new
Linux kernel settings.

Greg, go tell Packt they need to pay you to write the second edition. ;)
