It sort of makes sense if they are going to offer ebook versions of programming references they are DRM free. I mean these books are targeted at the very people who already know how to remove the DRM and if not they will actually enjoy learning how.
Great to see these publishers sort of are thinking past more then the current quarterly reports.
One thing though, if you are a developer you already know that color or at least a 16-gray scale display is needed since many of our references use color to demark important portions of the text. Actually this can be said for almost all technical references or textbooks.
