You may take as many copies as you like from our web site.  See 
instructions in
      http://www.aips.nrao.edu/dec17.shtml
The installation guide is useful for running install.pl.  Get a binary 
version
      perl install.pl -n
Each computer can fetch its own copy (actually you ftp install.pl only 
and then run install.pl which uses rsync to get the rest).

The AIPS CookBppk is a serious help in reducing radio interferometry 
data.  A copy comes with the installation (COOKBOOK.PDF in TEXT/PUBL/)
or you can use the web site as above except cook.html.
