It will cost a *great* deal less than that ($500 is more than I
expect to spend), but we will make a *great* deal less per book; the
numbers I'm seeing right now for a hardback are that if we sell it
for $50 at the industry-standard 55% wholesale discount, we'll get
$7 per book.

While I am going to be significantly reducing my involvement, I will
not stop providing web hosting.
