    Default Your opinion on a Flex book.

    Hi,

    I am currently reading "Developing rich clients with macromedia Flex" book,
    ISNB: 0-321-25566-6,
    [url]http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321255666/qid%3D1109089460/sr%3D1[/url]
    1-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/103-1200236-0360609?v=glance.

    I was wondering if anyone has read it, and if he/she has, how did they find
    it? I myself find the book very well written and usefull. Although, there are
    some mistakes (primarily in the code), the book is very easy to read. Also, I
    think that it would have been usefull to hav e a CD (in the book), with code
    and examples, instead of having to go to the web to get those. Although, its
    not a big deal, but you kind of get used to it, when most of the publishers
    provide a CD with a book.

    What is your opinion?

    Default Re: Your opinion on a Flex book.

    I have this book. It's a good introduction and getting into Flex, but I find
    that it isn't as detailed as I would have liked. I would like to see a book
    based on a real world example that uses Flex in extraordinary ways. But it's
    been great for my co workers just starting into flex. I don't like the CD,
    if you go and download the source you get fixed code, rather then code that may
    or may not work due to bugs.
