the P600(?) copy on newsprint is the bootleg one--it doesn't come with the CD.
I think the local re-prints are still legal. It is esp. made for the Philippines and can only be sold in the Philippines under the permission of the publisher. It also comes w/ the CD if you buy it from C & E publishing but you will have to ask for the CD as well. The CD is also re-copied w/ permission.
The only diff. from the orig. is that it is made from newsprint only while the orig. or imported one is printed on quality acid-free paper and is colored.
I think the bootleg or pirated copies Suzanne is talking about are the ones that were just photocopied and book-bound locally and sold in front of PRC.
