Steve, I sit corrected on the mass market paperback cost. I was figuring something closer to the $1.72. The las time I saw high volume numbers CDROMs seemed to asymptotically approach $1.00 as the volume went to infinity. As for returns, so far the CDROM market has simply supported a lively market in remainders. F'rinstance PC Connection is selling a bundle of 6 back issues of Nautilus, and there's been plenty of talk here about the cost effectiveness of buying encyclopedias etc. one rev back. I expect returns will become a problem in a few years though. (I don't expect a 'coverless book' problem though–If I were a publisher I'd tell the dealers to return the disk and trash the packaging instead of vice versa.) BTW, could you steer me in the direction of some affordable binding equipment? I would love to be able to do decent quality (they hold together) books in onesies at a couple bucks. Frank
