So with CGE behind us, we can get back to the scores of projects that were postponed until this time, one of which is the very often requested but never previously seriously approached compendium of Digital Press back issues.
Thanks to the help of my buddy Scott "superstonic" Stilphen, all of the DP back issues, from #1 in September of 1991 through #50 in March of 2003, including some of the special issues and extras we've mailed to subscribers over our 12 year history are now scanned in and available in electronic format. We're just about ready to produce a CD-ROM with these "complete works" for the very first time.
Surprisingly, there is still room on the CD, approximately 200mb worth, in fact. Now, this could be used for media/graphic files, photographs, or even a past edition of the DP Guide, but I'd like YOUR opinion on what you'd like to see in this extra space.
Considering that the CD will have all of this plus a custom interface, my second question is "how much would you pay" for such a thing? We did a semi-compendium on our 10-year anniversary which included only about 20 issues, DP Guide 6, and a basic interface and sold them all out rather quickly at $40. I really wouldn't want to charge more than that for this product, despite the fact that there will be much more content this go-round.
Your input is important to us! This could be ready to go as early as September 1st.
