It seems that the low end boxes move.  The high end boxes mostly get
back routed through the channel.  (the go to the stores, they come
back.)  It seems thought there is room for one more "version" a disk
only set.  Cheaper to produce, and a lot of people (a lot not all) don't
need / want the book.  Advantage here.  The book is, the most expensive
part to produce.  Heck include a "gift Certificate" for the book through
the mail or just put it on a documentation disk that can be read/printed
from winders.
