Karl,
<<I doubt it's possible to get it to the States at a reasonable price
though. There's also the problem of different standards (PAL/NTSC).>>
I have a machine that plays PAL/NTSC/SECAM and all the rest, so I've got
that covered. The price for shipping is a good question, and one I wouldn't
know. My guess is that it wouldn't cost that much to ship it; I mean, the tape
isn't that heavy. You're shipping from Germany, right?
Waiting till Motorola decides to release that 68060.

Chris,
Karl would be shipping from Belgium, and just to give you an idea, today I
received a Sony Playstation game (smaller than a video cassette) posted in the
centre of Brussels to my home on the edge of Brussels, which cost the sender
Bf246 (around eight dollars) and took six days to get here!

Chris,
From Germany it will cost (250 g – 500 g, air mail DM 24/surface mail DM 12).
Besides, the entire broadcast will be in German. I hope that is no problem!

I'd probably go with the surface mail–DM12. I also know German; not very
well, but it's an excuse for me to brush up on my old vocabulary. The surface
mail will give me the time to brush up on it too. Right now, I'm in my 2nd
Year of German. If I could just remember my vocabulary words, and get those
"die's, der's, and das's" straight I'd be alright.

Hi Chris,
Airmail takes around five days, surface mail around six to eight weeks!
The old problem: der, die, das.
Besides, today I tried to explain my colleague (he is an American) the
following:
beggar (singular) – beggars (plural) Bettler – Bettler Bettlerin
– Bettlerinnen!
Not bad, or? I understand he was confused after this explanation.
He said that he could send the tape via US mail. That will cost less than 8
dollars, probably five or so.

Hmm, surface mail takes about 6 to 10 weeks — go with airmail and you get your
tape in about a week to 10 days.

I need to brush up on my German, anyway. I read well in German, but I don't
listen well in German. I figure the time I wait is long enough for me to learn
my old vocabulary again.

Chris,

I ordered a Senna CD-ROM a few months ago from the USA. I was charged $16 for
shipment and a total of about $20 for all kinds of local-taxes. If you find
this acceptable, I'll mail it to you.
>> You're shipping from Germany, right? <<
From Belgium actually, but whey're neighbours.

Sounds good. Someone mentioned that surface mail was 12DM. I'd probably go
with that. We can discuss my address, price of tape, etc over E-Mail. When is
the AT suppossed to be on TV?
