You're that excited about uni you want to start reading text books?
My advice: Don't burn yourself out too early, enjoy your time off while you can. University isn't all A+'s, orgies and beer parties, you will get over it pretty fast.
Will be too expensive or non-existant for your unflexible needs.

Anyway, is there something wrong with flame? I log on and U: is unaccessible. I want to get some stuff off my drive, so I try logging in to ftp://flame.newcastle.edu.au/ and don't see any of my old shit. Am I doing something wrong or is the U: fkd?
Room locations are generally in the form of BBFRR, B for building code, F for floor, R for room number. There's exceptions such as theatres, but use that general rule for everything else.
It's fairly long.
After you finish the main game and get all the hidden puzzles, theres some bonus puzzles unlocked which are a bit harder.
Also, theres a weekly downloadable puzzle.
