I'm curious to know exactly how many of us are guilty of ignoring the free resources available to us from M$ opting instead for books of questionable quality that can cost $30 to $60. I know I'm terribly guilty of this and would just like to know if I'm in the company of a small or a large number of people. For example, the following link

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/nhp/Default.asp?contentid=28000519

takes you to a section in MSDN about .NET. Opening each tree of the node exposes a Seminar node on many of the branches. The following seminars are available:

ASO.NET - (8)
ASP.NET - (10)
C# - (1)
VS.NET - (26)
VB.NET - (22)
.NET Developemnt (General) - (166)

Which offer tens if not over a hundred hours of seminars on .NET.

Thanks,
