Actually, I should be able to ship them using Book Rate. Which is less than what you stated for 2 pounds. They are already in boxes, but the boxes are somewhat damaged. Peopel were throwing screwdrivers and such at empty boxes, including these not so empty boxes, so they usually have a hole bigger than a quarter in them. Sure, why dont you sent me your address, and i'll ship em via book rate, after taping up the hole. After you get them, you can send me a check for whatever the shipping costs were, plus whatever. The set consists of 2 D-ring manuals, one is about 1" binder, the other is much bigger, maybe 2" or so. There is a lab excercises, and lab exercise solutions stuff, plus a larger section that is the reading material for each lab. plus 3 CDroms, one has data for the exercises (which assume you have 2 networked computers, one running server, one running workstation), so you can pretty much ignore that, the other 2 CD's are NT server and NT workstation, 120 day licenses. -Lawrence LeMay lemay(a)cs.umn.edu
