Query: boring,boring, boring, avoid!

This is a rehash of the same Deitel style textbook which I suffered through in school. They were boring, boring boring then, they are boring boring boring now.You would be much better off buying Gary Cornell's great book from Apress which has a similar title. It's much cheaper, much better written and it's not boring, boring, boring. Unlike the Deitel's, Cornell can teach real programmers with boring them.The Deitel's seem to have created an industry of writing boring wordy textbooks and now they want to move into the Apress/Microsoft Press/O'Reilly space for books about .NET.They don't offer anything over the established books that I have praised elsewhere so do yourself a favor and get the Apress book by Cornell. Then get the Balena book from Microsoft Press to learn how to apply .NET and you won't need anything more. With these books you'll learn a lot more and you'll save money to boot over the Deitel book.
