A697

[John Larson]

My wholesaler is hooked in to several others, most of whom didn't jump on
the last few as he did, and there would appear to be few left anywhere.  He
says Bentley appears pretty intent on the CD program and not (at this time,
anyway) real interested in persuing the print market for older cars.  He has
to get the CDRs in lots of 10 and hasn't had many requests for them.  He
doesn't plan (again, at this time) to stock them.  John
