    Before we got a computer I bought a zillion books to work with Jeannie. I don't use some at all, and some I only use parts of. I was debating creating files on the computer of what I want to keep, then pass the books on to a friend who teaches preschool. A giant, giant job, but it makes sense to me, just for the space it will create!
    Has anyone else done this? What else can you suggest?

    To think, I'm the one that didn't want a computer because it was too expensive!!

    Technically it's illegal to save most workbooks like that. On a more practical note, how much of them do you REALLY think you'll use? How many are you actually using now? You might want to wait until you're finished and then pass it on. What you are considering is a LOT of work...I think you'll spend more time getting it set up than it is worth.

    I think it will take alot time. I could think of a dozen things to do in place of that! Why not just do a clean out, keep a few and then give away the rest? How many can one child need? I agree with Jackie as well, there are copyright laws and you will be in violation of those.

    Definitely a copyright violation. If you ever sent a friend one of your files it would be considered distribution.

    Gee, me and my criminal mind. Whatever was I thinking? I hope no one else gets such a crazy idea.
