Hello All,

After reading our french friend's original story, and the few replies, I
am wonder why we cannot make a CD-Image (ISO or whatever) and some
Diskette Images for the boot disks, and ship them over the net to him -
presumably he can get access to a CD-Recorder...

Thing is, this all sounds good in theory, but I don't know the first
things about duping a NeXT CD... I don't personally have a CD-Recorder, so
I never play with such things. Has anyone else had any luck copying the
NeXT CDs or Diskettes?

And no, I do not care about the legality of the situation... if you want
to discuss that, start a different thread. I want to talk about helping
out the guy in france and the guy in italy.

-Nick
