Lines: 18 I belong to the Small Computer Book Club. They are reasonable folks to do business with. As you mentioned, it works like a record club. If you don't send the card back, they send you the book. They do give you ample time to respond. After you have purchased 3 or 4 books, you get enough bonus points to by other books at substantially reduced prices, plus shipping and handling. It seems that the shipping and handling are the features that bring you up to the cost of buying at a bookstore. The only down side is that I always seem to end up with more interesting books than I have time to read. However, if you don't have a wife and 3 small kids this might not be a problem :-) In any event, The Small Computer Book Club (Owned by Prentice-Hall) won't burn you. -----Ken Gordon (kgordon@pilot.njin.net) Standard Disclaimer: I have no connection with the Small Computer Book Club or Prentice-Hall Publishers.
