Troy's K-Factor column

[Paul Brine]

As was pointed out by Tony some time ago printing 500 copies costs about the same as printing 1000.  So unless everyone goes electronic any savings to the organization will be minimal.  As an example of print cost we had a small job printed at work.  Cost for 500 copies was only about $200 more than 200 copies on a total cost of about $2500.  We ordered 500.

I suspect that there are also a fair number of folks who like me are still on dialup connections.  Download of the electronic version is not practical.

  Two things also. I assume Bob that by your statement of  "IF there could be some cost-saving schema for the NSRCA of giving an "electronic-only" option" then the NSRCA consisting of the membership, then we, as the members would receive that cost savings. If there is no cost savings to the membership then I vote NO. 

  If everyone went to the electronic version of the K-Factor then we would lose the ability to give our paper versions away unless you printed them out and then where is the savings?

  Two things.... One - Troy's writing is prolific, informative, and well-structured.  Kudos to you, Troy!!! Great work.

      Two - The quality of content, and durability of an electronic file makes that my preference, hands down.  IF there could be some cost-saving schema for the NSRCA of giving an "electronic-only" option, you'd get my support for that!!!

  I've noticed that quite a few of us read the K-factor on-line these days. 
  Especially if they have a cable modem. I know I always do because it is 
  there, and because I use my computer and web-sites a lot.

  My question is, "do you then read the paper version when it arrives?"

  Regards,

  Eric.

  P.S. Nice article Troy.
