A Fantastic Book
Forget the CD as I have never bothered to even use it. The book itself is a treasure chest of information. Well written, robust and easy to follow. Kylix Developers guide gives you the fundamentals as well as the advanced features you will require to become a well versed Kylix/Pascal programmer. A particular point which I enjoyed is how the authors teach you how to program outside of the components for X, which teaches you to actually program for X directly. Databases, Games you name it, it is in there.Another book I would recommend is LEARN OBJECT PASCAL WITH DELPHI. Though it says delphi, the langauage of Pascal is thoroughly covered in this book and translates quite well to Kylix.

Good Book worthless CD
The author has done a fairly good job of writing a book for Window programmers to use and learn Kylix on Linux. But I bought the book to use the Open Edition, but the install directions are not current with the layout of the CD that ships with the book. Be prepared to do some work to get the install correct.Better install directions and errata at the SAMS site would help tremendously.
