It'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.

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.)

Good point, I had glossed over ebooks. Many thanks!

I would agree with you if those on Amazon have DRM-free ebook version.

Yeah. the 40% is great fro ebook and screencast. I hadn't taken ebooks into account.
