Steve, could you tell me what kind of software the Bristol CD-Roms use. Really I'm just wondering if they'd be compatible with a Mac and i can't find much info on their website.
Same goes for anyone with similar info for Oxford or Metropolitan...
Back on topic:
Personally I'm gonna go the DL route as I've always been much better at teaching myself. At school and uni I'd always have trouble understanding everything in lessons and would work it all out from a book instead. Combining that with being able to stay in work, for some of the first module at least, it seems to be best option for me.
