A question about the Krause manual

newbiecollector

I have now a chance to obtain the 2009 Krause on DVD. My questions are,
does anyone else have it on DVD? Is it usefull?

I ask because I travel away from home 1-2 weeks at a time and just can NOT be dragging around the paper copies.

Thanks in advance for any input

When I got the new 20th Century Krause at work it had the DVD in it. We don't have DVD drives, so I took it home.

The DVD is a pdf of the entire catalog. They also tabbed it alphabetically.

If I had to go on the road, it'd be in a laptop, no doubt.

The PDF file is awesome. So much easier to look up stuff, and no more lugging around that big ass book. Of course now that PM prices have collapsed, probably half the values in the new book are invalid.

If you need that info on the road and have a laptop they are indispensable! lugging the books is not really an option...
I would copy the data (PDF files) locally to your hard drive though as using them from the DVD drive is slow enough to
make you cry.

Does the 20th Century Krause have only the 20th Century DVD?

Because I thought I saw a standalone DVD set that included 3 or 4 centuries.
But it cost more than just the 20th Century Krause book.

Thanks,

Ajaan has just been kind enough to give me a DVD for free (!)

I don't have it yet so I cannot answer much about it, but being able to carry it around on a laptop instead of lugging the paper version sounded pretty good to me.
