These went exceptionally fast.
Timing of the first response was Jim Capp by about 1 minute. So if Jim will send me his
physical address off list, I?ll coordinate with him in shipping them.

David,
I?m interested and will give them a good home. I?m in Pennsylvania, so coffee would not
work. I?m also willing to cover your shipping costs.
Cheers,
Jim

I'm 100% fine with Jim getting these manuals (lord knows I don't have
any more room on my shelves!), but may I ask that the 3B2 manual be
scanned? There is an existing copy of this manual floating around
online, but the copy that was scanned was a proof print, has extensive
markup, and a very poor scan quality. I would love to see a better
version available!
All the best,

That shouldn't be an impediment. I have access to a book scanner here in Seattle (full
double page non-destructive scanning). It's certainly more work than sheet-feed
scanning, but since it does no harm to the original material, it's worth it.
If either you or Jim would be willing, I'd be glad to do the scanning and then
immediately forward the material on to its forever home.

Hum....
I wonder if it would be worth while for people to rotate books from
their collection through such a system / service. Presuming I have any
books that people would be interested in, I'd be happy to ship them
somewhere, pay a reasonable fee to have them scanned and shipped back to
me. All the while, the community benefiting from the scans.

I've got a scanner for those too, but it's a ton of work and I need to
give my elbow a rest for a month or so.

Seth,
If the 3B2 manuals are in a 3-ring binder, or are in condition to be scanned with a page
feed scanner, I'll be happy to scan them and send you a copy.
Cheers,
Jim

I?ll leave it to Jim to see about scanning it (?bitsavers?). I don?t have the equipment or
the bandwidth to do it.
