	Fellow CD-ROM buyers.
	We now have 19 people wanting one of the CICA CD-ROMS described
	below. I've spoken with Bob Bruce at Walnut Creek about bunching
	differing CD-ROM's in the same order for a better price and we can 
	do it. So, look through the list, let me know which one's you want, 
	what's the max price you'll pay for it(ie if we don't get 25 discs
	in the order, would you still pay the qty 10 price)and I'll let you 
	know what we've worked out. Also note the CD-ROM Sony Caddies for 
	$4.95, everwhere else I've seen these, they're $8+ for them, so if 
	you need 'em this is a good deal.

	We'll be ordering this the first or second week of January. If you
	can think of relatives or friends who might want one of these, NOW
	is the time to buy it, since the price would be better than they'd
	get on their own. Call 'em and ask, let me know via email, and I'll
	get back to for payment and delivery.

	-dewey
	ps. email me and I'll mail you a copy of the index to the Windows disc.
