if I get to 3-4 books then its a possibility but the costs of doing it to 1 or 2 are immense

the prices are all over the board, depending on where you go.  My theory is 1 book, with 3-5 books inside of it.  Ill have 3 done by kickstarter or end of year for sure.  (2 diaries and the robot history book im working on right now) 2 more?  they are not in my brain yet.

if and when kickstarter is thought about with the devs I will talk to them about it.

Its nice that a couple of people like the idea of a leatherbound book, but it can be quite expensive.
With due respect, I don't want to pay for this type of thing in kickstarter, I want in game aspects.
In game aspects also means that the Devs get more of the donation in their pockets, with a leatherbound book a fair bit of the donation goes to the bookbinder, and I don't really want to support a bookbinder, I've had many books rebound in leather , I've done my time supporting them,lol.

My suggestion would be that if you want leatherbound books, organise it through Dale.

Howdy,
           I collect some types of old and antique books and on occasion I  get them re-bound or re-covered.
I use local bookbinders, and the more expensive or aged the book is the better the bookbinder I use.
For new editions most bookbinders would suit, as long as they've been in business a decade or so, or that is a criteria for me anyway.

I see this guy might be able to answer some questions for you as he's in the US, and the other link is just about some basics of bookbinding, and recovering.

Good luck  :)

Book 2 is ready to go, just waiting for some timing to put it out.

Book 3, the robots perspective is a bit on paper and mostly in my brain. 

Busy writing some tech manuals (IF your an IT guy and use Trend Micro Worry Free or OfficeScan I have brand new written from scratch books about their next versions in the next 2 months  (Total of 1100 pages) )

but there will be a new thread sometime in the future and book two being free?   I think enough people have to tell us yes I want a free book and it might be.

Yes, I want a free 1100-page ebook on Trend Micro! 8-P

Actually my organization is in the middle of switching from OfficeScan to MS's System Center Endpoint Protection (we recently stood up a System Center Configuration Manager server, which comes with SCEP, so why not save some money?). Would anything in your book be compelling enough for us to switch back?

Book 1 was quite an interesting read and I'd like to see what happens in Book 2. Hopefully the devs can finish their end soon so that it can be set free! 8-)

putting the security on the guys who wrote the software is like getting a developer to right a manual...   they think its perfect, but it never does what it needs to.   M$ is not a security company, never has been, never will be.  And with the changes they are making internally I would say in the following years they will be even less of one.  Ill take a company who makes its living from security over M$ anyday.  and email me ill send you the changes coming in OSCE 11, which I just finished a 2 month beta test of.  You get what you pay for in the IT world....
