Title: My first New Riders Book...Maybe my last...
Review: I hate to be another person to mention the large amount of typos and poorly formatted code, but I can't help it. It truely is as terrible as everyone says.I have past programming and Actionscript experience, so it's pretty easy to pick out the errors in the code examples. So, I'm hoping that the author's updated downloadable code will help me feel better about spending money on this book.Currently I'm about 200 pages into the book, other then typos and poor code formatting, the book seems like it might be a good primer to help me get started. If they do a second edition of this book they should definitely take the time to explain what's happening in the code in greater detail. Some of the concepts and examples leave you wishing that there was another paragraph/page or two about what was done.This is my first New Riders book and if this is what I should expect, it will definitely be the last. The editors at New Riders should be ashamed.
