Greg:
A couple of years ago Cristo asked if the link would still work if redirected to Amazon.co.uk, and you said that it should. I see there is a link from Amazon.co.uk now. I am in Canada. If I click on the Amazon.com link and redirect to Amazon.ca, is PF going to get the 6%? If so, great! If not, I will just get my textbooks from Chapters.

Stupid question: Does this also work for orders via Amazon in Germany? Then, of course, I'll order via the physicsforums link :-).

I didn't know about this. Perhaps you should consider putting this in the "notices" box at strategic* times?

Would it be okay to buy a nonfiction book about something factual (like computer science) but have the intent of studying it as a subject not offered by school and mention Physics Forums?
