Nah, I just prefer a paper copy.

I prefer a bound book, myself, one that's printed in ink that won't run if I get it damp. And of course, given the outrageous price of ink these days, printing your own is almost as expensive as just buying one pre-bound.

This. I meant a bound copy, my bad.

The hardback version Syn produced was super sexy.

To be honest, I don't even know which version I'm getting. I ordered if from Barnes and Noble, if you'd beleive it. It's the only place I could find it. Honestly, I'll take any version I can get so long as I can physically thumb through the pages.

I printed mine and put it in a bonder so I can put other things in with it.  I did it in stages at work, so I didn't pay for the ink...  :oops:

You're a fucking idiot.  Synaptyx has a HARDCOVER edition on lulu.com, and the proceeds would have gone to one of our own, rather than some ratfuck publishing company.

How much is it? I can still cancel the order.

Edit: Just looked on lulu.com and could only find the softcover. Doesn't really matter, anyway, I don't have a credit card or bank account to order with.

Yeah, I seem to recall Syn running into some sort of trouble with the publisher printing the hardcover version.  I think he was getting hosed by them or something.

I've seen Syn's PD hardcover at other places than just lulu.com though. Is it not also on Amazon and Bol.com?

I bought Syn's hardcover on Amazon, but I think you can only get the softcover now. Which is OK, it's still a superior edition. For some reason shipping is cheaper when you buy Lulu stuff off Amazon.
