Which book is better for a good jumpstart in C#? O may mas maganda pa liban sa dalawa? I need your opinion...
haven't seen both, but based on PERL I found cookbook better than nutshell.
Hmm... starter book sa C# ba, I have two books to suggest.
Headfirst C# :http://www.headfirstlabs.com/books/hfcsharp/
HeadFirst C# is a complete learning experience for object-oriented programming, C#, and the Visual Studio IDE. Built for your brain, this book covers C# 3.0 and Visual Studio 2008, and teaches everything from language fundamentals to advanced topics including garbage collection, extension methods, and double-buffered animation. You'll also master C#'s hottest and newest syntax, LINQ, for querying SQL databases, .NET collections, and XML documents. By the time you're through, you'll be a proficient C# programmer, designing and coding large-scale applications. Every few chapters you will come across a lab that lets you apply what you've learned up to that point. Each lab is designed to simulate a professional programming task, increasing in complexity until-at last-you build a working Invaders game, complete with shooting ships, aliens descending while firing, and an animated death sequence for unlucky starfighters. This remarkably engaging book will have you going from zero to 60 with C# in no time flat.

Gamit ka ng Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions.
LaTtEX:Gamit ka ng Visual Studio 2008 Express Editions.
So with the express, maa-avail ko ba lahat ng essentials ng C# at ng .NET Framework 3.5 na covered ng HeadFirst C# book?

I only use the eval version. Hindi pa kasi dumadating yung VS 2008 na copy ko.
Anyway, you can get a FREE VS 2008 Professional edition kung aattend ka ng conference sa Feb. 27th sa LA.
