I have the deluxe edition, and have played and ran P&P - it's a great game.

Sooner or later you've got more of a collection than what you can possibly use.This looks really quite good. I've checked it out online and it looks sort of like a cross between White Box style gaming and B/X.
Have you seen the hardback deluxe edition at all? It's available on Lulu and I've been thinking about investing in it. Is it fully comprehensive i.e. it includes all the rules including the Referee's Companion? There's a description on Lulu but it's a little bit vague as to what is actually included in it.

The one problem with the deluxe printing is that while it contains all of the core rules + the two supplements, they are not combined logically - it is just the three books put together one after another. So for example, each supplement has lists of extra spells, but there is no combined list of spells, you have to look in three separate lists. That said, someone did combine the spells from the supplements into a PDF, and there are lots of other great play aids available for free for P&P, so despite this drawback with the deluxe printing, I'd still recommend it.
Also, our very own @jcftao did a solo P&P campaign that is great reading. The posts are tagged so you can read them in order:
