Three copies is excellent - we should just write enough books that each
sell like that, and we'll be fine:

Let's see what happens, maybe this thread will provide incentive for someone with storage expertise to document their knowledge.
Heck, I'll settle for someone with a really good dose of common-sense. And maybe a calculator. I'm not sure you need anything much fancier to meet *my* needs. ;-)
Of course, you've hit on exactly the reason that such books are so scarce. We've established that there is a market for at least 3 copies (I think Mogens sounded interested). Only another 999,997 more, and we can probably find a publisher who will be interested (and willing/able to adequately compensate the author).
Oh well. We've made a start. ;-)
