There are only three programming books on their Top 100 list. The other 
two are Modern C++ Design (#12) and C++ Coding Standards (#28).

This all sounds great, but it must be because my homepage links to 
bestbookbuys.com. :o)

 preorder?



I have a feeling that bestwebbuys counts a "purchase" when you click on  
the referring "BUY" link to e.g. amazon, even if you don't buy the book at  
that site.

I just "bought" one recently :)

In that case it's counting interest in books, not sales. That's a different 
but also interesting metric.

ps will not Herb Sutter be  little upset that his book currently at no 
22(see below) has been outdone by a book that does not yet exist!
