1170.0. "DECpress" by MUCTEC::WENDL (The beautiful MUCTEC Cluster) Wed Aug 29 1990 08:16

Who is responsible for DECpress?

Does anyone know if "DECpress" would be interested in authors?
Would there be any "DECpress" support for authors (e.g. "DECstation
+ DECwrite at home")?

The following is true for Germany (only, hopefully!!!):
I tried hard to get some DECpress books (with price reductions?) via
Digital (DECdirect and others) for *personal* use (NOT cost center)
- without *any* success (no one knows, no one is responsible ... ).
Also I pity customers: they would have to pay incredible prices and would
have to wait eight(!) weeks, if they really would be insisting on
ordering via DECdirect (the books *are* in their catalogues, really).
By the way: getting other (non-Digital) literature is even harder;
it's poorly organized, to say the least.

1170.1Have you called DECpress?ICS::RYANWed Aug 29 1990 14:5313
    Have you tried calling DECpress directly?
    The US Phone book lists the following:
    Coordinator   (all these at BUO/E94)  DTN 249-1536
    Manager                                   249-4435
    Editorial                                 249-4809
    Sales Manager                             249-1498
    Production                                249-1427
    
    I dealt with them a few months ago concerning a European order - they
    directed me to someone in the UK (can't recall the name now). They
    should be able to help you.
