Back before documentation became available online, the technical books section at this store was perhaps the largest repository of technical documentation available in town. The selection was in a part of the store bigger than most mall bookstores, entirely technical books on the tall shelves from top to bottom.

I bought dozens of O'Reilly books from that location over the years.




I bought an early version of Redhat on CDs there along with my tech books. I was then able to get to my own mail and ftp server going. WBB might even get some credit for my career path.
