I agree wholeheartedly with you in regards to not packaging all of the manuals.
I cannot , however, agree that APDA is the answer. I finally discovered the
line of ADDISON-WESLEY manuals through a bookstore. Our local dealer didn't
even know that they existed. As to APDA, I received the first catalog from them
, which was still very skimpy. Despite cashing my membership check I haven't
heard from them since.
But wait, there's hope.(maybe Keith passed our notes on) Included in the
latest USERS GROUP CONNECTION mailing there was a brochure describing the
different manuals available. Once you know that the manuals exist you can
order them locally. Our local LITTLE PROFESSOR can get any of these manuals
within a week. What's APDA's time these days? (P.S. Wwhat are the dues these
days?
