Java is my language, but I usually go to Amazon and read the reviews on books to decide.

I would imagine that your sum always comes out to 9, 18, or 27

cool thing, base 10 numbers, when you borrow, it goes to 9. The number of times you borrow times 9 is the sum you get.
Reminds me of baccarat

no, larger of the two minus smaller of the two
the borrowing to complete the subtraction is part of it

I'm getting ready to go so I'll say the virtual route is great for testing software on various platforms simultaneously. You can save your state by simply copying and renaming the image so you can experiment and break everything then just go to your backup. Great with external hard drives, carry your linux with you and just put qemu or VMWare on the new machine and start it up.

Dual boot is nice, but if you have enough resources, you can use a virtual machine to run both at the same time.

this one is free
you do need lots of ram and a good cpu
