Now Available on DVD

Read several comments on this mini-series. It is available on DVD. I found it in the "reduced bin" at my local Wal-Mart this morning. The quality of the DVD is unequaled. For the price ($5.50) you sure can't beat the price. Now, if they would only release WASHINGTON: BEHIND CLOSED DOORS with Cliff Robertson - it would "make my day!" Just wanted to pass this information along to you.
