My set was shipped yesterday and should be here in 2-3 days. I'll post here what I think when I get them.

It definitely takes a while for the file to load.. what I do is look at the beginning index where it lists what country is on which page (on one DVD it's actually in a separate file - kinda handy that way) then use the "go to page" at the top, rather than trying to page down to it via the keyboard. Egads, I only tried that ONCE.

And that's on a 2GB-RAM machine.

DVD should say "RAM not included" ..

If you own a copy all you have to do is rip it to your computer for quicker access

Though the picture on the website shows a 2008, I wonder it you'll get an older version? For that matter, is 2009 the "current" version making 2008 "obsolete" and thus explaining how it can be only $25?

That was the second thing I did.. the first was to boggle over the file size.

I received my DVD set today. It is the original set from Krause. I also looked for the 2009 version online. The 2009 DVD has not been released yet. It will be included with the book when it is released according to Amazon.com . They are taking prerelease orders now for the 2009 version.

To our American friends.
Please be advised that KM values for modern Australian coins are usually at least 100% undervalued and at times up to 400% undervalued.
I have discused this with KM researchers over the past 18 months but nothing seems to change.
regards,

Very true--but I don't mind at all when dealers here price Aussie pre-decimal according to Krause.
