Re: Books exchange offer



Misko,

A "LUG" is a "Linux User Group" - a local user group of people
interested in Linux.

Yes, it most definitely *is* cheaper. I just came back a few minutes
ago from the post office where I shipped a (15-pound) box of books to
someone in Cote D'Ivoire in west Africa.  By airmail it would have cost (in
US dollars) $56, by regular surface mail $31, and by "M-Bag" (a special
surface mail rate for books and such), $12.46.  I chose the last one
but they did say it will take 4-6 weeks to get there.

Regards,
Dan
