[casual_games] Sudoku

[Lennard Feddersen]

Not to derail here but I wonder how you make your money back on 
publishing a book about Sudoku?  I don't know the book publishing 
business but I wonder what their break even is.  Picking a lowish #, are 
there really 10K programmers out there who will shell out for such a book?
