 Correction: Readers DO get a free digital copy August 13, 2010
Steven Weiss
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
To make a few key points about the preceding review:
1. Microsoft Press & O'Reilly Media are in a strategic alliance to produce Microsoft Press books and other resources. There are still lots and lots of people working at Microsoft who are at the center of Microsoft Press publishing.
2. Anyone who buys a print edition of this book gets a free, downloadable, fully searchable PDF of the book. You just follow the directions on a voucher card in the back of the book, register (completely free) at Safari Books Online, use the unique code on your scratch-off voucher card, and you'll be able to view the book online or download the book.
3. The link book's exercise files are here: [...]indeed, some readers have found the link descriptions a little hard to read; we're working to fix that in upcoming titles and in reprints).
4. The reason we replaced having CDs in books with making material available online is: bundling CD-ROMs means those media can get scratched and cracked, and even removed from books while at the store (not the case with Amazon, of course). Also, system configuration issues can get in the way. Someone sits down with their new book, the CD doesn't work, they're frustrated. We've switched to making ancillary files available online, which has been deeply appreciated by most of our readers (which isn't to de-legitimize the opinions of those who'd still prefer a bundled CD, of course.) As well, it makes it possible to update those files as necessary throughout the entire life of a book.
Hoping this helps,

 No digital copy included -- O"Reilly Wants More Money for It August 5, 2010
David Dietzel (Rancho Cucamonga, CA United States)

This book is NOT really put out by Microsoft Press. It is really published by O"Reilly. These Step By Step books do NOT now come with a digital copy. You must PAY extra for it from O'Reilly. You can access an online version for free, but if you want a digital copy for you laptop, smartphone or Kindle you must upgrade your free online account to a monthly fee account -- and, they only let you download 5 digital chapters per month, forcing you to buy three months worth of the upgraded fee access. The monthly fee is over $20 per month -- you'll wind up buying this book on Amamzon 4 times then to get the paper and digital versions. This is not Amazon's fault. O'Reilly is the real publisher of this book. Buy different books other than Step By Step if you want Office 2010 books.
