Re the ones I have been give to the library it just started When I gave them a couple of sets.
After they looked at them they just started asking for more.
I know them well as I was teaching a free computer course there for a few years and know the staff well.
I am thinking it may get out of hand if I keep supplying them.but they do not have any burning equipment.
What do you think? It is mainly my time and cost of Cd's

Ray

Michael and I could give some away at the HOPE conference.

Will the new DVD replace the the present DVD & CD. Will we still send out
the old Discus.
I have a less 80 of each still in stock and getting requests from our local
library here for at less 10 per week.
These will not show up on the main list. Is this OK to provide them with
these discus direct from me . here in Australia.
Could we give the new DVD a special identification or just use the date the
DVD was made
Regards
Ray Rivett
Australia.

The old dvd will ultimately be replaced by the new DVD, but not for a couple
weeks or so. Go ahead and keep giving away what you've got, but don't get
ahead of your self. Keep your stock of burned discs low, that way you can
easily give away all your old copies when you get the new image.

That's interesting. How does that work? Do you have some sort of ad posted
their?

You can give the discs to whom ever you would like.

It will probably be called the 2006 DVD, or just the '06 DVD.
