Ditto. The only books I ever bought in college were the few data structure and algorithm books I still use today as reference guides. For everything else I either did not buy it at all, or if the professor was known for textbook related activities we would get a bunch of people to pitch in a few bucks and share one copy of the book.
Sure as hell beat the alternative of paying ~$100 for a book then getting ~$5 when you try to sell it back to the bookstore at the end of the semester.
