Definitely wait for the sales though. It's tough to beat 70% off or whatever it is. (Obviously I need the math course myself, I guess... ) Last edited by Kriston; 12/18/08 06:18 AM. Reason: Oops!

I don't know if it is still available at that price, but the others are absolutely right about getting on the mailing list to learn about sales. Many libraries also have Teaching Company offerings. Glad to be of help!
