Hi

IMHO it's very unprofessional and almost fraudulent behaving like this. I don't understand why companies like Amazon are supporting it as well. A good example is available here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/0974599336/ref=cm_cr_dp_2_1/103-9162065-1954230?%5Fencoding=UTF8&customer-reviews.sort%5Fby=-SubmissionDate&n=507846. Notice that from the 5 reviews that give more than *one* star (of course 4 or 5!) at least 3 are well know people working for Rampant. INDECENT!

Have a nice day,
Chris

PS: Yes, being interested in everything around the CBO I bought Floss' book. This is for sure my first and last book of this editor.
