They are not encouraging this for obvious reasons. But if you want to you can. AFAIK, there still is no option to pay monthly. I really widh they would explain why they won't or cannot do this. I think they fear that some will join, download StarOffice and other premiuum goodies and then block their credit card from further charges. A risk for sure, but it could probably be minimized with certain procedures. I think they could really increase their revenue as a lot more people would join if they could pay that way.

Deno posted a link to the TOC on the Club site. I'm sure some of it is a rehash, but it looks to me like it has a lot more stuff than the default docs, including server configuration and stuff. I joined the Club instead of buying a Pack, so I don't have the 9.0 manuals, so I don't care much if it is a rehash. Also, Deno indicated in a follow-up post that an html version will be going up for Club member access. That might be a reason to skip the book and just go for the club membership. -- Greg
