I don't know if it counts but my ninth printing of the first edition of ๐˜‹๐˜ฐ๐˜ค๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜›๐˜บ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ต๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜œ๐˜•๐˜๐˜Ÿ ๐˜š๐˜บ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ - ๐˜๐˜ฐ๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜๐˜ - ๐˜จ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฑ, ๐˜ฎ๐˜ท, ๐˜ฎ๐˜ด & ๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง๐˜ง is a favorite as it makes me remember being young and wanting to learn more about computers and is still useful today. 

It's a hardback copy with a very slightly damaged spine but that aside, looks almost new. As an art & design guy, I love the AT&T logo of the time which appears twice in the first few printed pages. It still has a McGraw Hill bookstore price sticker for $31.95 on the back cover. I love it anyway!
