Publishers don't make any money either. Going into the publishing
business is a classic example of the joke about how to make a
small fortune (start with a large one).

Books just suck all around. Stick with manuals.

What stinks even more is the actual author makes little to no money on the
book. Publishing is the way to go. It is like the music industry, in most
cases the artist makes little money and the record companies get it all.
Sheesh, no money for the working man, money for the man working for you.
