My Classic Traveller Journey Begins (or re-starts after thirty four years) and Kindle Joy
It came. Huzzah! But even more importantly, I managed via resurrecting an old laptop to gain access to the CD, transfer it to a flash USB and get it on my computer so I can read it at my leisure (see below, an inconspicuous looking package but it literally contains a whole universe of ideas, or even multiple [infinite worlds] universes):
"Calling Free Trader Beowulf, hold one we are coming ..." but I don't know whether that is good or bad news.
Update: Even better, I learned how to send PDFs to my Kindle via an App called "Send to Kindle", please see following links:
Three small Steps:
Install/Download App (called Send to Kindle)
Login to Amazon
Select destination device
Right click PDF and select "Send To Kindle"
Also from Steve-The-Wargamer:
No App needed Geordie.. make sure your Kindle knows to accept emails from your email id, and just send the PDF's as attachments on a mail to your Kindle's email address.. it also works for RTF, or Word DOC or a number of other formats.. more here... https://www.amazon.com/gp/sendtokindle/email
There are many ways to "skin the cat" :)
