Hi all,
I have just renewed my subscription on-line and was taken by the fact that you can now get the mag in Zino Digital format.
I thought what a great idea as I can file them away on the computer and can easily search for any article.
My wife put the blocks on this though when she said "And can you take the computer to the loo?"
Regards Gerry.

Dear Gerry i find it hard to believe that you might think that i would have anything but a sensible answer for you.
You could always go wireless.
Now how well behaved is that.

I have wireless broadband and a laptop. Very useful for when you're incarcerated, ill or your house is on fire

Out of interest, can you tell us:
- What the size of each Zino copy of KG is when saved on your PC?
- How you find using it?
- What types of searches are possible?
.. Can you search a directory if files, to help you find a subject amongst lots of different issues, or
.. Do you have to do a search, one issue at a time?
.. Can you use any tool to search, or do you have to use the search tool built into the Zino reader?
I used to get a trade magazine using Zino a couple of years ago. This was online-only and whilst interesting, it wasn't particularly nice to use. I'm sure they've improved it since then.

Hi Colin,
I can't answer your Questions. I went for the magazine. No doubt someone else will.
Regards, Gerry.
PS. OH, I bet it hurt giving that reply.
