Django book ordered

I have no experience with books from PACKT, and usually lean toward Apress books, but I just ordered Learning Website Development with Django. It has some decent (hopefully authentic) reviews on Amazon, so I figured I would give it a shot.

I was originally going to order The Definitive Guide to Django, but the rather poor reviews of it scared me away. Same with the warnings of typos and errors in the Sams Teach Yourself Django in 24 Hours book.

According to the Wikipedia page, PACKT is an interesting company. Check them out.

    I recently read the SAMS book and I though it was pretty good. I actually thought the typo density was lower than average for computer books. I’ve written a review for CVu (the ACCU magazine); when it’s published I’ll post a link here.

    Good luck with the Packt book. The quality of computer books generally is pretty depressing.

    Best wishes
