That's disappointing. The 2nd edition seems available on
Amazon cheaply (though one has to ask for 'all editions' and it
took a bit of work to figure out how to get there). (earlier
edition used-book listings for this book generally don't
mention which edition is being sold -- not nice.)

I recommend the 2nd edition for IRIX/HPUX users who like
comparing UN*Xes. I did order the 3rd edition today, now I'll have to
keep two editions on the shelf...
