The technical information is much more comprehensive than _Jane's_, and covers a much wider timeframe. (In other words, it has accurate information on older stuff still in service.) When you compare it to the new "streamlined" versions of _Jame's_, going at more than $150.00 US a pop, I know where I'd rather put my money. -- Pete Stickney A strong conviction that something must be done is the parent of many bad measures. -- Daniel Webster |

Do they give regular updates between issues for *Subscribers* ? I will have to check out at least one copy of it and perhaps switch over. It is not a matter of the money but the information and it being kept updated as to any new developments that concerns me. At any rate thanks for the information on an alternative to Jane's. I have to aggree their level of information has suffered lately. -- MattA ?subject=HepatitusC-Objectives Matt's Hep-C Story web pages are back at a home.
