The $3.99 covers the cost of the media, and shipping.  These are full
operating systems that are available for download.  I simply burn them on CD
for those who have no broadband connection.  Where else can you get 2 CDs of
a complete operating system simply for the cost of media and postage?  I do
not share anyone's name or address.
John Corliss, you really need to get a life.
