I was just going to ask
How can/may I obtain some copies thereof?
I would like to buy a couple of the books,
one set for me
one set for the local library and if possible with a CD of the OOo
programs and a printable copy of the books thereon.
I would donate the one set to my local library.
Then I would like to know how I can entice one of the local computer
stores to stock a couple of sets.
I a fairly certain that he would load all the machines he sells with OOo
2 and a copy of the books.
You can buy the books at retail through the Lulu store. Since you
are one of the contributors, and I know you are on a low income,
I can arrange to get two sets of books for you at cost (one for
you and one for you to donate to the library). Please contact me
offlist about that.
At the moment we don't have CDs (containing OOo2.0 and OOoAuthors
books), but that's something I've been thinking about organising
(if someone else here doesn't do it first). I don't know which
of the CD-sellers listed on the OOo website include the
OOoAuthors guides, but I'm sure that some do.
Are you able to burn CDs yourself? If so, the easiest solution is
to put together the files you want and burn copies to give to the
library and the computer store.
As for enticing a computer store to include OOo and PDFs of the
books... well, I leave that to your imagination.
