    I'm no official word on this, but apparently some things are happening ... Nothing public yet, though.

    Afterall.. that's a long shopping list so it can't happen overnight.

    Ok just a quick update- Emmanuel Benoit is in charge of the Superbundle- so I'll leave any announcements on it, to him :)

    And yes it is coming togther ok! :)

    What I'm looking at, is getting the Resellers (and others) together and make a PD/Shareware/Retro app CD, with apps no longer supported, demos of supported apps, graphic and sound Demos, Backdrops, Skins etc, and any other useful MOS/PPC/68 apps that run on MOS.

    It could be given away free with Pegs, and downloaded/copied for free too. :)

    Thanks for the update. We appreciate it. The Superbundle (Phundersundle?) is exciting.. I hope the retailers/resellers get the news ahead of general public.

    Nice idea! :-) I'm curious about the superbundle too.

    Nice to see so much ACTIVITY - I honestly missed it in the past years :-)

    "Morph Pearls Vol. 1" :)

    Maybe I can organize some cheap "cd press" possibility.

    So we can made some more professional product. We need only some kind of shipping/order handling infrastructure. Maybe Felix can help out with this.

    Final price can be around 10€/10$. (CDROM, Cover, Tray).

    What do u think?

    Yeah, we've thought about that- A.Scott Pringle mentioned the possibility of customising the Superbundle/PD CD for each Reseller area, with support group info etc, in that case the low production runs of each, may make it expensive.

    And if they still get them pressed, each reseller may get their PD CD's (more likely to be customised at this point), pressed locally.

    Well it depends what's in it, you'd have to give them something more substantial than just what's availible on Aminet for that price, and I'm not sure on licensing PD stuff.

    What I was thinking, is keep it simple, and then resellers give them away for free with every Peg2 sold, or for cost + a small amount, for Peg1 owners- say US $1-2.

    But I'll pass your message to the Superbundle team though- can you mail me your email addy please- to ants@paradise.net.nz :)

    yep. but if u want to made a cd then allways some
    money required. :) And it will be cheaper if u press/print more. 2 produce small amounts is much more expensive (price for one item) that to produce big amounts.
