Is it possible to get a paperback copy of the concepts guide or is the
electronic version my only option?

thanks

There are devices called printers; in case you are/were unaware of this
fact.

I guess our friend Cpio will find your remark really really funny.

Cpio, you can buy the documentation from Oracle directly:

Now that's thinking outside of the box a printer. I'd love to print
off like 500 pages place it in a gigantic 3 ring binder bring it to
bed at night for a little reading and then knock my wife out cold when
I open this beast. While I am at it, maybe I will switch over to SQL
Server.....

Thanks for the link Jerome.

Try printing the SQL manual. It is at least 1100 pages. I have
printed full copies of several of the manuals. After I printed a
manual I took the copy to the copy machine where I made double sided
copies so that I could fit the manual into a single binder. For
serious reading of the manuals I find I need a printed copy. I am
trying to learn to read online but the highlighter is messing up my
screen 8-D.

I took select documentation PDFs to a local business printer (FedEx
Kinkos in the US) and they were able to print it up in a nice small
format (~4" x 6" in US measure) with a spiral binding. Very much the
way documentation used to come in the old days when software suppliers,
well, supplied documentation with their products. Handy, readable to
most, and portable.

Note however that before I did this I obtained a statement from my
authorized Oracle reseller that this was an acceptable use of the
documentation. Like anything involving Oracle licensing this could
change from microsecond to microsecond.

Sure, kinkos is the best route if I am going to print it myself. I was
really just curious if it was possible to purchase from oracle and
what the cost would be. At 75$ looks like kinko's it is. thanks.
