I still have my "Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 Bible" and other relevant Linux 
printed texts.

:)

I agree with the reference to a wiki instead (providing sufficient 
volunteers keep it sufficiently updated) - a problem with print books 
about software, including OS's, in addition to the need for ongoing 
updates, and, errata documents, is that people always find information 
that should have been included, and, wasn't, and, adding missing 
information to a dynamic, collaborative publication, such as a wiki, is 
better and easier, than print book revisions and subsequent editions.
