Art of Otaku File Size
First, many thanks to Justin, who got our fourth server online. It's now distributing theOtaku's load, so hopefully you'll see a major speed improvement.
Second, let me talk about Art of Otaku's filesize, since it will be in PDF format.
Uncompressed, Art of Otaku is a whopping 300 MB. However, using some advanced PDF compression methods, we were able to get it down to around 25-30 MB.
It's still a big download, but those with a high speed Internet connection can laugh it off.
But how about those with dial-up or those who want something physical?
We're going to have a version burned on CD. Justin pioneered this idea and will be heading it up.
The CD version will feature our uncompressed guide (the 300 MB one) and will also come preinstalled with a menu and the latest version of Adobe Reader. It'll also have a very cool label.
Pretty neat, eh? We're going to try HARD to have it for launch on November 15th, but we might be a little late. The CD will, of course, cost extra (plus shipping and handling).
