    Great work cecofuli!
    My thought exactly. I already feared it was nodelocked, so I had to buy 2 for home and office and had to order a new book with each new PC =)

      I'm a little late to post but I wanted to give my highest recommendation to Francesco's book. I was honored to help with the translation from Italian to English, in doing so I have read the entire volume and in the process learned a lot. Francesco has a real talent in laying out the information in a logical and easy to understand fashion, the book is literally chock full of relevant tests and examples. I have always subscribed to a "big spins" method of learning V-Ray, where one learns what each settings does really only by testing the extremes of each setting. Francesco has taken the time to do this for every setting in V-Ray showing the results, the render times and when relevant, plotting the results with data such as memory use vs. render time. Studying his tests is "The" way to really understand what is happening under the hood. Beyond the nuts and bolts there are also some of the clearest and easy to understand discussions on LWF, Digital Color Theory, Cameras, etc. I have no doubt that anyone who reads his book will walk away with a better grasp of V-Ray and the related aspects of cg Viz.

      Congrats Francesco!

                    Ah, Finally. I signed up for the pre-order but never got the email telling me its ready for order. Anyways, I think the price is fine. What would anyone pay to have hour and hours saved by the examples shown in this book? I think its a great price point. Will puchase when I get the email or see the order button.

                      Looking forward. I just hope there will be an easier way to pay then bank transfer. Why not a paypal account ?

                        I really want this book but bank transfer only? That kills it for me. Paypal or Visa/Mastercard would be ideal.

                            I've signed up for the pre-order quite some time ago but haven't heard anything from it.

                            I'm really looking forward to this book...

                                Just got the email that the book was shipping - and had credit card in hand but.... $50 euro seems pretty steep for shipping. The site automatically chose courier, is there some way to ship via post or something more inexpensive?
