Has anyone had to do a cost justification in order to purchase the CD Roms for use with Bookreader and software installations ? If so, I would be interested in receiving any notes you may have in regards to any saving in dollar costs and time. Any experiences you think might be of interest to us would be welcome. As a side note, our VAX 8650 runs Multinet. Would it be possible for the Decstation to access its own CD's for software installations and use of bookreader if the CD ROM player resided on the VAX ? Send your responses directly to myself. Thanks. -- Guy Gondor Internet: ggondor@PFC.Forestry.CA
