I'm trying to decide how to buy the SimTel library and would be grateful
of advice on where best to get it for UK delivery.

The folks at coast to coast in the US sell the msdos and windows
collections separately and are now up to Q1 '95 (actually end of Feb, I
believe) on a quarterly cumulative schedule.

Here in the UK a firm called Livewire sell the Infomagic edition which is
a bargain as it is a combined dos-windows set but, at least at Livewire,
they are only up to 9/94.

Can anyone suggest alternatives which are economical and as current as
practicable?  Subcriptions or single collection sales are both okay.

(email or posts gratefully accepted)

Thanks.
