#2"We’re offering 40% off everything in the store—books, PDFs, and screencasts. There are a couple of exceptions, including The Pragmatic Programmer book itself (ironically, we don’t publish it), and the Programming Ruby 1.9 which is already on its anniversary sale."

#5Their servers must be getting hammered now. Even pragprog.com is a bit slow.
It's going to be interesting on Black Friday if this is how responsive it is just for the announcement.

#6It's hard to get excited about a promotion that brings down the price to about what Amazon already sells their books. I'm not trying to diss the PragProgs. I like their books as they're very useful to me. I do own a couple. But from the customer's perspective, it's not a big deal.
Now the screencasts is another matter. 40% off is a pretty good deal.

#7Great, I've already bought 3 PragProg books this month alone. Don't know how I can resist the temptation from buying more. PragProg is probably my favorite publisher, I really enjoy their books.

The sale is exciting to those of us who want to buy the ebooks, which are not available from Amazon. (I'm thinking about now buying Seven Languages in Seven Weeks: A Pragmatic Guide to Learning Programming Languages on Friday.)
