Uggh, for that price, I'd just get a "gently worn" copy of the hardback book... say, at the link below for $50... ;) http://www.amatobooks.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=AmatobooksCom&Product_Code=C1571881263&Category_Code= I saw a FTJ (fly fishing and tying journal) at the local Barnes & Noble with an advertisement 'construction- paper' cover over the magazine itself - the back of which showed the CD-Rom at a price of 40 bucks or just under that. I'd still go for the 50 dollar hard-back, but that's just because of how I use the thing - I'm not trucking my computer all over when tying ;) -Pete
