Sean: I'd like to see you push geeks to buy their computer books from
Amazon.com. As you know, Amazon.com loses money each time somebody buys
a book from them. Since computer books aren't something that independent
bookstores sell, this would be a way for geeks to hurt Amazon.com
without hurting their local indie bookstore.

Frankly, I think Amazon.com fucked itself when it took over Borders.com.
