well noted.

Why would anyone buy into a book publisher when even children in Pokot and Kilgoris are learning their a,e,i... on ebook readers? Obsolete tech, like buying a company that makes typewriters.

Longhorn should by now be selling branded ebook readers with their pre-installed ebooks or have acquired rights to distrubuted ebooks from international publishers.

I am NOT endorsing Longhorn. I do not trust Nyammo. Until I see the numbers, there is no point speculating on value. Nevertheless:

Folks, Longhorn is not a 'printer' as much as a publisher. In the current set-up, publishers are needed whether one prints or provides e-books.

Longhorn publishes (mostly) educational books & with a wildly fluctuating curricula, there is a market for 'new' books every 1-2 years for the same grade/class.
