========================
I haven't had a chance to check if the MT CD-ROM I got is has a bollixed player's manual, but I've been using a PDF version of MT Player's Manual I got either off of DTRPG or RPGNow a while back and it seemed to have all the pages (the ones I was looking for were chargen and skills). Not having those would be problematic.
Oddly, despite the vast bulk of errata, the game is quite playable since the skill system is the main aspect of it. Chargen errata is usually of moderate to no significance (and is done with once PCs are generated).
Vehicle and Ship building errata are significant if you worry about that - I just DL'd a few tools from around the net like Ships For Windows from Ace and the Dog that does my builds for me. I'm told it has errata and house rules, but it gives me a consistent standard, even if it has issues.
Having all this stuff in PDF is great, even if hte PDFs aren't perfect. Being able to move my Traveller library around on a hard disk drive rather than in 3 very large collapsible crates is a bit of a godsend. That's not quite true yet since I can't get the FASA/JG/other small press stuff all in PDF yet, but one day I'll have managed the feat of getting all that stuff electronic.
