[dvdvol] Re: dvdvol Digest, Vol 22, Issue 3

Wed Jul 5 22:45:31 PDT 2006

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
