I've had problems with issues 2-4, mostly because the postman trys
to fit develop into my small mailbox, bending the CDROM.  Of course
I can't blame him, Apple in its infinite wisdom doesn't mark develop
DO NOT BEND, and most magazines don't mind being bent.

I called up the distributor a month ago and asked for a replacement
for issue 4, nothing so far.  How about one of the folks at Apple
sending me a new copy (marked DO NOT BEND)?  In fact, how about
getting all the issues marked DO NOT BEND?  It really can't be that
hard to get it printed on the plastic wrap!
