+Paul & Ros Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I have often found in the past that cover disk programs can be downloaded for free anyway. It may be worth checking if there is anything specific that people are considering buying this magazine to get. That said, if there is something special on this disk that cannot be got for free and is worth having please let us know. Quote Link to comment

Have a look hereHandymap It may be free, but the maps are not, and there are only maps for 4 UK cities. Not sure how else it can be used. Quote Link to comment
