The world every day becomes an increasingly electronic place. We talk by video-phone for free with people around the world. We pay our household bills increasingly without using a postage stamp. We run our businesses and plan our days using programs that only a few years ago did not exist. So its not surprising we are also issuing and receiving electronic catalogues. The world changes and these dealers are changing with it. These presentations are all worth a thorough reading.
