It's that valuable :-) I was only half-offering, as I can't believe
that a digital copy really is worth $500 to anyone. I'd settle for
fuel really.
I assume you don't have a photocopier for the same reason you don't
have a scanner. In which case you'll be using someone else's equipment.
I've never looked too closely at the economics of photocopying, but
it's going to cost 4-5p per page (assuming that the cost of home
printing
on a laser printer is any guide). In which case I'd guess that it's
almost the same cost to go to a high street copying emporium and have
them
scan it properly straight to a PDF.
(I'd offer to bring a sheet-feed scanner along and scan it in your
presence,
but no doubt someone at work would notice its absence :-))
I am almsot sure I don't. I have a good set of PC
family
TechRefs (PC,
XT/Portanle, AT (several versions) and PCjr -- the only
System one I am
missing is the XT/286 AFAIK). And soem of the O&A stuff, I
didnt;' buy
all the supliements for various hard drives or obscure
adapters though.
But the only PS/2 manual I have is the 'Hardware Interface Technical
Reference'. I certianly didn;'t buy any of the suplements for that.
One of these days someone will throw out a decent scanner with sheet
feed
that fits in the boot of a car ...
