If you order the CD from America you will get charged an arm and a leg for shipping and you will also get another bill from Customs & Excise for the VAT. I would refrain from pre-ordering the CD and wait until it's released in the U.K which will only be a few days after it's released in America . Ron . www.genealogyprinters*com
