Not really ATM (the CopyFlo is available, but is quite a lot worse than the 
SID files). For now, I'd advise him to find a friend with a decent colour 
printer & use that to print out as many SID files off as he feel comfortable.

I've been considering asking the Beinecke if we could use the SIDs (or, 
better, the raw TIFFs) to source a full-colour, A4-sized, facsimile-style, 
not-for-profit print-on-demand book (via BOD or whoever). It wouldn't be 
super-cheap (and the fold-outs would probably be a bit clunky) but it ought 
to be excellent quality, and something we would all be happy (and proud, I 
think) to own. Think of it as a CopyFlo for the 21st century. :-)

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
