For the techies in the house--how can I get my Penny Wise CD onto my Kindle?

As I write these words, gentle readers, your very own Longacre is toiling at the office on a Saturday, slaving away for The Man. In between barking out orders at the staff and surfing the internet, I am lovingly gazing at the Penny Wise CD sitting on my desk, which contains every PW issue published from 1967 to 2011.

In a few weeks, I will be departing from an undisclosed airport, and jetting off to Luxembourg for two days, and a quick stop over in Northern Italy for a day, before jetting back to the States.

I would love to somehow have all of the PW issues on my Kindle Fire, to peruse on the flight while enjoying warm, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and an expensive aperitif.

Does anyone know, mechanically, if there is a way to get the PW CD onto my Kindle, or will I be relegated to reading the PW issues on my laptop?

    Step one...contact your assistant.
    Step two...tell him/her to figure it out.

    Good luck with that.
  • What format are the PW files?

    Dog-- you might have solved it. I will ask my assistant to give it a test run. Thanks. image

    On a related note, how does one obtain a CD that has every Penny Wise article written in last 40-some years?
    Is it available via the EAC?

    You might also try Calibre. It depends what format your Penny Wise CD keeps the documents in. It is freeware.
