If you can get me the URL and permission to have this
PDF Maxima book printed, I can set this up in about
ten days if there are no glitches.
o The basic cost of a 800 page book is about $22.
o if we want a profit, we should decide what
we want amd who gets it (the printer gets 20%)
o People would order it online with credit card.
o They are printed on demand and mailed.
o Profit is mailed out quarterly.
800 pages is the maximum size book they can print.
