Probably so. It's not my sale. And I doubt if the seller is even an Apple II
user at all.

I wonder how many copies will sell.


Btw, buyers of the book who also like collecting things may find this little
note interesting:

There are 5 pre-release proof copies out in the world. I have one, and the
other four were mailed off on Tuesday. These were printed on the 14th of
June and they say so on the last page. I'm assuming, therefore, that all
final copies will also have the date of printing on the very last page.

Therefore, if you are to pick up a copy second-hand, you can gain some idea
of when it was originally ordered, and thus, how old it is.

It's not exactly serial numbering, but it's close.
