 SNAP-E BOOKS

|
Snap-eBooks is a new publishing company
dedicated to the principle that great products and
tools do not have to cost a lot!
Snap-eBooks completely disagrees with the current industry practice that says that you should charge whatever the market will bear for AS/400 related products.
We believe that keeping the prices of our products low makes them accessible and affordable for everyone in our industry including programmers, operators, administrators, managers, and pretty much anyone else. After all, why should a book cost $89? At that price, only companies or corporations can afford them. Our low prices also mean that you can purchase however many eBooks you need, and get them when you need them.
Each eBook is full of step-by-step information that you can use to immediately learn a given topic in a short amount of time.
Download the Lightning-Guide eReader and then take a look at our sample eBook, called Introduction to Visual Age for RPG, and check it out for yourself just how useful our products really are.
