Oops! Forgot taxes:

       Profit Before Taxes:    $370
       Taxes:                   $74
       Profit After Taxes:     $296

So, dspGuru nets me less than $1 per day.

Hi Grant,
  I saw your updated web pages this morning.  Neat.

I had the same idea that you did (collecting "sample 
chapters" from published books).  It's a good idea.
I don't have any additions to your list but I'll
keep your idea in mind as time goes by.

Thanks Jim,
  I'll check it out.

Hi Rick/ Grant,

There are a few good books on Dr. Robert Gray's site
http://www-ee.stanford.edu/~gray/

# Toeplitz and Circulant Matrices: A Review
# Probability, Random Processes, and Ergodic Properties
# Introduction to Statistical Signal Processing, with Lee D. Davisson
# Entropy and Information Theory
# Conditional Rate Distortion Theory

Rick,
Although not strictly signal processing, Steven Kay's new book,
Intuitive Probability and Random Processes Using MATLAB.

Hi Raghu,

  Thanks for your post.  You're making 
me more confident in my list because I already 
had Prof. Gray's books on my list.  This is good.

Thanks again,

Hi Bill,

   Gosh, I just saw your post!

Thanks much, I'll check it out.

Grant--

Very engaging discussion. I might have some opinions on this but will
reserve till I read all the posts. But I do have a quick question. PLease
find the same below:

Iam a relative newbie here. I would neither know the time frame of what
you are refering to nor the person with the alluded motive. But I do care
deeply about comp.dsp and its future. Could you point me in the right
direction?

  Thanks.

Iam surprised that no one yet suggested, the following list:

http://www.mrccos.com/~jmagno/dsplinks.html

That was one of the first (master link)page that I used in my quest to
learn a bit of DSP!

Also, I would point out Prof.Andreas S.Spanias pages, his courses and his
publications at: at http://www.eas.asu.edu/~spanias/. He had a fantastic
java/internet based DSP lab, with which anyone could play and figure DSP.


The link is:http://www.eas.asu.edu/~midle/jdsp/jdsp.html 

One more link from eas:

http://www.eas.asu.edu/~dsp/links/links.html


I wouldnt missout the following either:

1]www.vliw.org
2]http://music.columbia.edu/cmc/music-dsp/dsplinks.html
