After the lecture I bought some of my books. The three together cost a little under $250. They have cool names like 'Systems Analysis and Design Methods', and 'System Architecture'. The book store was pretty busy, but it was no where near the hell I remember from when I was buying text books at Ballarat Uni.
I love expensive books, even if I don't use them very much. They're great to have just sitting around because they look cool, and you never know when you'll need one as a reference. But mostly they look cool. I wish I had a big bookshelf so I could sit them all together and admire them.
