a) how useful do you find it, vs. the hardcopy magazine with the annual

gallery) for project ideas and inspiration, and would be disappointed if
the scans are low enough resolution that they aren't as nice as the

Hi Andy

I have the DVD. It is a superb resource. I keep a copy on the
harddrive of my laptop and dip into it whenever I have a need. The
search facility gets me what I need fast. I do prefer reading the
magazines, and have most on my shelf for brousing, but when I am
looking for something specific, then it is the DVD I go to.
