The huge difference, Luc, is that you have the good fortune to live in the USA. For the rest of the world, it's a grab-bag and service is ... well, let me put it this way ... you do not simply 'buy' a book and 'demand' help, you 'apply'. Far too often the answer is a flat refusal or dead air and white noise. If your reader is good, though, there's always a way, as I say. But surely we outside the US shouldn't have to plead on bended knee to buy stuff, pay a heck of a lot more for it (if we can get it at all) and then feel grateful to the grubby-fingered shopkeeper who was kind enough to accept our custom. Peeves me a bit does this. Neil
