Not around here. The on-line vendors push their prices up to the same as shops, and they're often more expensive once you include postage and handling. The *cheaper* to buy it on-line phase was very short lived, as soon as they realised they could make even more money by raising their prices, and other vendors realised that it's not as easy to undercut traditional vendors. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.9-73.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
