I'd love to buy the FSM 25 year DVD. However, I hardly read e-articles on my computers. Reading them on my iPad is infinitely more convenient. It would be awesome for FSM to offer a tablet version. Please do so!

Another point: the CD-ROM drive is rapidly disappearing. New desktop Macs don't have CD-ROM drives. I bought an external one for my Mac, but the guy at the Apple Store predicted that the CD-ROM will soon be as obsolete as the Zip drive. (Remember that one?) And shopping for a drive to access your old disks will be like shopping for an LP turntable to play your vinyl albums.
I feel old....

I still have a Zip drive and 5 Zip disks. When I bought them like 18 years ago, I was overwhelmed by the sheer 100MB capacity of a single disk.
.................same here, especially since I experienced using single sided 5/14 floppy disks when they were state of the art.........
I can fondly remember my Commodore 64

I remember springing for over $100 to buy my stepdaughter a zip drive, because one of her education professors said she absolutely had to have it for his course. I wonder how many college students today would even recognize such a thing.
That same stepdaughter is getting married in a few months. Yesterday my wife bought, at Staples, a package of address labels for the invitations. The labels came with a CD-ROM. So I can use my free-standing CD drive to work the program. I'll bet it also could have been downloaded from the web, though.
Later correction: there was no disk in that package of labels. Just a page of instructions, which took me about an hour to sort out.
I wonder how many laptops come with CD drives these days. Just a few years ago, a CD drive was absolutely essential.
I have 3 laptops (2 Apple 1 Dell). None of them came with a CD drive. I bought a $20 USB CD drive 2 years ago and have used it once when installing MS Office.
i have an APPLE IIC in thd bunker with an IMAGEWRITER printer

The files on the 25 year DVD are just PDF's. As I do not have a tablet I believe there is a new "tablet" version of Adobe called Acrobat DC.
So can I copy PDFs from the 25 year DVD? Then, I'll be able to read them on my iPad.
