Thing #227: Computer Science Books

Thing #227: Computer Science Books

This stack of computer books is mostly Computer Science textbooks, and mostly obsolete. Half Price Books not only accepted the pile, but returned me a voucher for two dollars and fifty cents! (Which I immediately applied toward the purchase of a single, more expensive book.)

I had to give away twelve computer books as one "thing" because I counted and I've acquired eleven new computer books since this project started. Okay, it's more than eleven, but I plan to give some of them away later, or something, so I just now decided they don't count.

This lot weighed in at a whopping 28.4 pounds, which means I've now lightened my bookshelf by 56 books and 68.3 pounds. Wolfram Alpha says that's the equivalent of 8.2 gallons of book-water!
