Re: tlug: Taipei's Akihabara

Hi,

The book I bought at a bookstore in Hsinchu (yeah, not in Taipei) was
titled "Linux初学興管理" (Beginning Linux and its Management?) written
by "陳玉柱", published by "松崗電脳図書資料□□有限公司".  It appears
not to be a pirate one, and includes a CD-ROM (I have not tried, but
seems to be Slackware 3.1).  The CD-ROM is said to contain 
	- Chinese environment
	- cfonts Chinese fonts (Taipei)
	- cxserver Chinese X Server

The cost was NT$396, approx. JYen1,800.  

Regards,
Ken
