amazingly ftp.compaq.com is still online. You can go to /pub/softpaq and
get anything. I have downloaded all of the softpaq so I could search the

Oh, that's great! I figured that the couple of documentation scans on HP's

Thanks (& also for the index that you sent off-list), I'll have a poke
around...
