Kale's book is excellent and I always recommend that people buy it with PureBasic.

I don't use the book so much now, but I did when I first started. PB Docs are more of a reference and not so much a guide.

When I wanted to use PB Linked Lists the first time, Kale's guide provides more information about them as a whole, the PB Docs are good if you want to look up a parameter or function name but you already understand all about how it works, it won't go into detail about how it works though like Kales book.

I purshaced it yesterday, and if it comes the amount of days Lulu says it should.
Then it should arrive the day my tests / exams finish. So... That will be a nice treat.

I forgot to mention, i also know AutoIt3, which, is very similar to this so it shouldn't take me too long to pick this up =D

I just bought Kale's book too and I like it a lot. Some of the things I did not understand how to use before (eg: structures, arrays) were made clear to me after reading.

My book has still not arrived even after 5 days as Lulu says it would.

Hmm - Lulu said it would arrive in 5 days?

I thought they quoted time to ship with an estimated delivery time.

e.g.
Expect paperback books, calendars and discs to ship within 4 business days after your order date and hardcover books to ship within 10 business days after your order date

Delivery Times
UPS Ground 2-6 business days
USPS Media Mail No time guarantees (usually 1-3 weeks)
Note: The shipping times we provide are estimates and not guarantees.

cheers

I got the PDF one, much quicker

For things like this I prefer electronic versions, I can print part of a chapter if I want to read it on the train.

I dislike eBooks for exactly what you like. It has over 300 Pages so it would be a waste of cash to print it. I would pref. a boundle...
