So does this mean that when we release the compendium of Iron Stars, bound in one book and nicely arranged, that you won't be buying a copy?
Seriously-- the PDF system has worked out BEAUTIFULLY for us, especially now that we can do POD through Lulu.com. It means that those who want a professional-looking hardcopy can get one, while we sell a lot more units via the electronic delivery option.

What sort of negative attitude can one have about PDF? It hasn't cut into sales for us at all -- quite the opposite, in fact.
Also, Rory, you failed to mention in your list of reasons to be thankful for MJ12 that we have kept the e-mail function of the listserv open for you wet monkey-types...
