To do screen captures, you can either buy a video 
capture card or a simple device called Snappy.  
If you don't know digital editing much, I highly 
recommend you to get the Snappy.  It's up to 
version 4.0 now, you can get a new one around a 
hundred buck.  Very easy to use and the picture 
quality is pretty good too.

Mandarake Zenbu is a quarterly catalog which 
people across Japan can submit the form by mail, 
then the lottery will decide who is going to win.
The auction in January is different which it does
require a thousand buck for deposit.  That auction
targets for serious anime collectors, they know
most people will spend over a thousand buck very
easily.
