That is one thing that I did think of, but my local LUG , since I am way out in the middle of nowhere, has only one member! Also, between working a full time job and going to school, I haven't really got time to spare to attend meetings regularly. That is a real complication for me when considering making a trip to another town to attend a LUG meeting of a larger group. Others that have replied to my first post have offered solutions that I am very grateful for and might use. I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner, but I might see if I can contact, by email, a LUG *somewhere* in my state, to see if someone will be so kind as to send me the CDs I want. Sincere thanks, -- Dennis C.
