imo -- yes, it's a very cool thing especially if you have
multiple machines to update.  i used the cd-roms to create a
single 'master' cslt tape for all our (xl) store systems
(and tapecopy to make duplicates...).  made updating 150-odd
systems slicker than a hound-dog's tooth :-)

otoh, i didn't receive any cd-roms for 6.0 <sigh> and i
(feel like i get) blank looks whenever i bring it up with
our hp contract support folks <sigh>               - d
