I would suggest making it donation-ware in PDF form and then setting up with a on-demand publisher like http://www.ondemandmanuals.com/ as another way to make money off of the book. That way those who want a hard-copy can get it and help support you in that way. We use On Demand Manuals for all of our software documentation and the quality is fantastic.
