doah-- minus my last suggestion, I got so excited reading your email I
forgot to finish reading all you wrote!  but might I also suggest... =) 
when your flipping through them, think up some random security topic out
of your head that you want to know more about... say "chroots" and then
look it up in the index, then compare the two books that way.

its a real world example of how they will most likely get used, and what
they should be good for. i like a book with examples too on say, how to
setup a chroot for any service. =)

ymmv, peace
