I have a vivid memory of buying the Unicode 1.0 book. It was the start of 1996 and I was back in Chicago for a few days, and there was a used copy upstairs at that bookstore on Michigan Avenue near the Auditorium. I had to have it, even though it meant lugging it around in a backpack everywhere I went. And yet here now I haven't been bought the fifth edition yet.
