It would be time-consuming but relatively straightforward to convert the
entire Electronotes collection to PDF and put it all on a CD-ROM. How many
people would pay $50 a pop for the CD? Probably enough to make up for the
price differential. It could even get some real distribution.

AMEN. With FAQ's ("The pros and cons of exponential convertors by Ed
Tempco") and everything. Then we could put THAT on a CD. We could call it
"The Electronotes 2000 Collection" (just kidding, Bernie) and sell on late
night cable TV: "Thought you couldn't build a synthesizer? Well, you're
probably right...until now!"
