Hi, y'all. 

It's question time again, so everyone put on their thinking caps.

Mail order houses in computer magazines do a good job of finding a cheap(er)
outlet for software, but I have a difficult time finding good computer books.
Most of the ones I find are beginner-rated, and very few offer any advanced
or theoretical concepts.

The only bookstore that sells decent computer books is B. Dalton in downtown
Chicago, but their Apple // section (this is before GS, and won't help me
post-GS either) is minimal; again, mostly beginner stuff.  They don't have
much theory; their "general" books usuall deal with a specific compiler
or computer ("AI Using Turbo Prolog"). Their big with IBM and MAc and Amiga,
but not Apple //.

So, does anyone know of any mail order bookstores? OR where I can get a catalog
of computer literature on the market?  Theory books? Etc?

Thanks,
Roger Espinosa
