    I think the spirit of this idea is really great! With a little
care and planning it would be feasable and if adopted would be a great 
help to all interested in buying software.  Does anyone else think
that this plan could become a general practice for general software
As I have mentioned before There appears to be NO knowledgeable dealers
in my area and they are certainly not up to date.  This might be one way
of aleviating some of that problem.

    Any comments?  Any one else dissatisfied with their local retailers?
