 was in the computer store, at the mall, just the other day, where most
of our target audience probably gets info etc. and there was a guy in
there looking at software.  He asked the girl what the cd on the box
meant.  Do I need to say any more?

Ok.  I will =)  She told him it meant the software is on a CD-ROM.  His
next question was????  Does that mean I have to buy a CD-ROM to use it?

How many CI ppl out there do you suppose buy a computer and say "I don't
need a CD-ROM on my computer, I can just use my stereo."  And figure
they'll save a few bucks buying it without the CD-ROM, bragging to
buddies on the deal they got by not getting it with the CD-ROM, only to
find out that CD-ROM wasn't to play music.  Well, not just music.

Sorry.  I can see this guy doing that and find it hilarious.  You know
it happens.
