5/1     Recommendations for Windows 95/NT programming books in C++?
        Beginner stuff, preferably.  Thanx.
        \_ wouldn't you rather have a Win95/NT C++ programming book in English?
           \_ You moron.  He/she wants to get a C++ program that outputs
              Win95/NT programs.
              \_ outputs Win95/NT books, you mean?  Oh, okay.
        \_ My favorite book is _Compleat Learn C++ Windows 95/NT Programming
           in 21 Days for Morons and Dummies -- Unleashed!_ it comes with a
           free copy of Internet Explorer and Netscape, and has supplementary
           chapters on K-RAD MULT1PLAY3R 1NT3RN3T GAM3 PR0GRAMM1NG and "Why
           Java beats the hell out of C, C++, Eiffel, and LISP".
        \_ "Final Exit" by Derek Humphry
        \_ "No Exit" by Jean-Paul Sartre
        \_ "Programming Windows 95"
           subtitle "The Definitive Developer's Guide to the Windows 95 API"
           Charles Petzold, Microsoft Press, 1996
        \_ "Windows 95 Programming Nuts and Bolts for Experienced Programmers"
           by Schildt, Osborne Press.  With this and the one above, you don't
           need much more.  This is the good intro, and Programming
           Win95 is the reference on everything you might want to do. -mogul
        \_ Does anyone have the new "Inside DirectX" book?  I'm wondering if
           \_ I'm as good as I am think
           it's as good as it is thick.
           \_ I'm as good as I am thick
           \_ Covers everyhing other than D3D for which there will be
              another book. - AdamG@MS
                \_ D3D sux.   Use OpenGL instead.
                \_ We already had a memorial beer bash after you left.  You
                   can't come back now.

5/1     Some thoughts on child pornography on the web
        \_ Got any good nudie pics of you as a kid we could post?
        \_ child is different by definition in different counties. Japan
           it means under 14, U.S. it means under 16.
