I can't resist pointing out that the Delphi books held up much better
than the .Net 1.0 books I used to own.

I still have my Delphi 1.0 disk in it's jewel case but someone borrowed
and didn't return my 'Delphi Programming for Dummies' by Neil Rubenking. I
also have my copy of 'C# Programming with the Public Beta' which has held
up quite well even if it's slighly dog eared, Wrox used good quality
papaer back in those days. :)

I still have a copy of the first version/edition of the Delphi Developer's
Guide by X and Tex, and Delphi Database Development, an M&T book authored by
a number of people, one of whom is John Kaster, and quite a few others. I
don't read them anymore, but they do have sentimental value.
