[Color Computer] Re: [Coco] why you should stick with pdf

[Mike Pepe]

I'd rather see it be distributed in pdf.

djvu may be a newer, superior technology, but much like vorbis ogg files 
versus mp3, the latter is 100 times more popular despite being the 
inferior standard.

Everyone knows what a pdf is. The media costs on a small run like this 
are relatively negligible compared to the licensing cost, and Lonnie 
doesn't care how many pieces of media it goes out on.

I'd rather have two dvds of PDF files than one full of djvu files.

my two cents
