Well, the subject says it more or less. Has anyone bought the 2nd edition, and if so how does it measure up with respect to the developments in DirectX since the 1st edition (from 1998)? Would you still categorize it as a good starter book on DirectX and windows game programming? ~Rassi "I like deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." Douglas Adams

It''s still an ok book, but if you''ve bought the first addition, don''t bother with this one. It has little to no new content, just been updated to dx8. Also, some people have complained they can''t get the source code to work
