Topic: Finally got to read "Merchant War" (question on Po

And I have to say that I like ti very much. My current copy is a PDF (via e23) -- but I will be purchasing the printed book soon.

As I understand it, printed versions of this one are via Print-On-Demand, correct? What experience to you all have with this new and growing technology, specifically as it deals with this book?

You are correct, and as luck might have it, I just received my POD copy last week. I have to say I am very impressed with the quality -- you really can't tell the difference between the book printed by Lulu and those printed by our "traditional" print company.

However, deeper consideration reveals I shouldn't be all that surprised-- our traditional printers use the same technology as Lulu does for runs of under 250... so in effect, we've been doing "print on demand" for years.
