Linux Central already has the 6 CD LE 2005 set for sale in the US for
about $15.00.  Although I'm a club member I can't do anything that looks
like file sharing here on campus and am still on dial-up at the two
places I'm supposed to live (actually, I live here!).  I ordered it
today.

I'll probably order the DVD from Man. Store when they start shipping
them just for convenience, but for now the Linux Central deal is too
good to pass up and the service is much better than Man. Store anyway.

I can make and send copies of the 6 CD set to antipodean people who have
no other way to get it.  I lived in NZ for most of the 70s and have fond
memories of it but well remember the difficulties getting some things.

This means you, Rosemary and also the fellow whose name escapes me who
must live under Mt. Egmont.  Write me off list.
