I was thinking about that but I'm not sure which way it might go in
the planning stage ?

Think the closest we could get with Blackwell's would be an offer of
a book discount. I had an idea to get Linux Emporium interested as a
PCW adviser. But, I'm sure they'd see John Winters as competition
(which they wouldn't want). Another idea might be to ask PCW to buy
in some Cheapbytes CDs and give them away. Then again I don't see
them wanting to spend money.

Keep chatting away Alex. Might come up with something that works eh
?

The Meadowhall option would allow everyone more freedom to do
whatever they wanted but then we go back to being stuck in a rush
without backup.

Anyone else want to say something ?
