  You like what I did with my autosignature?  You inspired me!

  I'm about halfway through the book myself and thus far I've learned a few new things that I didn't know. Thanks, Dale, for putting this book together!

  Thanks, Brian!

  I just LOVE your Avitar! 

  I already pre-ordered the SSIS book, Professional SQL Server 2005 Integration Services , by Brian Knight, Kathi Kellenberger, etc. (see Kathi's link above).  Looks like I won't see that until after the end of January.  I'm looking forward to that one myself!

  By the way, Brian.  I bought your book, Start to Finish Guide to SQL Server Performance Monitoring, probably a year ago.  It's got lots and lots of ear marks.  I've used it many times!    My favorite section was Stored Procedures, Caching, and Recompiles (especially Specifying the Proper Owner).

  
  All the best,
  
  Dale

  I ordered my copy. Just a note based on my 10 minutes reading.

  I feel Dale Corey really took time and effort to put this book together. If you have worked with SQL 2005 you may not find very interesting but it is worth $8. (It is cost of a lunch).
