Where can one acquire Brenton's translation of the Septuagint and how much does one cost?

Referring back to my original post, has anyone else encountered problems with the RSV?

Can anyone explain the reasoning behind the weak translations I mentioned?

I have to concur on the ONT being the best one.

For those interested in getting an idea of what the Benton Translation of the Old Testament is like, I have, because I have no life, (and rather enjoy things like this, dded the complete text of the Septuagint to my website. i do not usually post links to my site, but I figured this to be an exception as it actually pertains to the post at hand. Enjoy, I know i did.
