I have alot of .NET books...

It's been two years since I started learning .NET and recieved my MCAD, and I now have a total of 18 books on .NET related development topics. I never counted them until today; I just kept buying/winning one every 4 to 6 weeks. Most of them are from Microsoft Press.

Here's the last 4 I've gotten (in the last couple weeks by the way):

  1. .NET Remoting (ISBN: 0-7356-1778-3) - I won this one at the last WI-INETA meeting
  2. Introducing Visual Basic 2005 For Developers (ISBN: 0-7356-2058-X)
  3. Introducing ASP.NET 2.0 (ISBN: 0-7356-2024-5)
  4. Introducing SQL Server 2005 For Developers (ISBN: 0-7356-1962-X)

Am I crazy in thinking this is a high number of .NET books? Does anyone have more?

the second pic is the books i've left at texas. maybe 10% unread. need to donate those to a library.

there are probably about 15 books which show up in both pictures, so subtract those.

i consume books like mad. some i read close, others are just skimmed. i check half price books alot to find the occasional gem. otherwise i buy from amazon (tax write off). and when visiting TX, i hit the $5 book stores ... WI needs one of those badly
