Recently named the number two fastest-growing public company in Silicon Valley, Fatbrain.com offers a world-class selection of books, training materials and print-on-demand documentation for business, finance, math, science and technology experts. Their industry experience and in-depth knowledge of authors, topics and trends help customers find the best resources for their needs. Their track record stems from their days as ComputerLiteracy.com. They built a loyal following among programmers and IT professionals in their early years with a unique specialty in resources for technology experts.

They're proud to be in the forefront of the business-to-business e-commerce market, which is expected to exceed $1.3 trillion by 2003, according to Forrester Research. A key component of their success is their FINDitNOW program, which provides businesses with custom, intranet-based bookstores.
