If you know of any computer shows or ham fests, you can usually
buy CD for less.  My understanding is that Walnut Creek does not
want to compete with their own commercial customers so that charge
a little more for direct end user sales.  In any event, I have
purchased directly from WC for some CDs (FreeBSD for one) cuz I
wanted it when it was hot off the press.
