Would anyone know which companies are selling GPL in Canada? I have had no luck on my search locally here in Ottawa. If I run out of options here I will have to mail order from the US. Thanks.

I was just at Office Place in Whitby yesterday and they had a load of them on the shelf at $29.99 CAD. Do you have Office Place in Ottawa? They always have copies and is the only store I know in Canada that still sells it.
Office Depot, $29.99 "Mike Craig" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I've seen GPL appear and disappear a couple of times at my local FS.

I just posted a short while back that Office Place had them all. My local shop had them at half price ($15), too, as part of a general sell-off of old software. Marc. "Mike Craig" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

In Montreal, many places carry it. Bureau en Gros (Staples) has had it for $4.99. I bought mine at Walmart for $9.99. I've seen it at Zellers for $29.99.

I've seen GPL appear and disappear a >couple of times at my local FS. Anyway, I hate that store. OK. I hate it too, but I still go there because sometimes they have good deals. I complained about a manager to head office once over my return of a defective video card. Since then they have changed their return policy to a more accomadating one for the customer. That manager no longer works there either, but I don't know if I had any effect on that.
Future Shop Yonge St had it for a long time. The smaller stores will often NOT have it as you say s/w availability is less). But the website has always had it till early this year. You can buy it there and have it shipped to your door! And, yes the staff in Future Shop are really dumb. I know ten times as much about PCs as they do.....just kids off the street..... ============================================================================ ======= ymenard wrote in message ...
