It worries me (a lot) that you'd throw anything
out after scanning it,
considering that that paper version is easier to read and will last a
lot longer than any scanned version...
He can always print it out once it's been scanned... ;-)

If scanned in correctly the manuals would be more usefull up on a website
then rotting in 1 persons basement. Most manuals dont take up that much
space, but if you have 1000 of them then you have to have a good cataloging
method or you will never find the one your looking for. Most people dont
want the library of congress in their basement.
So are these pdf's on a website or ftp site I can get at them?

Yeah, but (a) he won't, and (b) many computer printing processes have a
shorter life (of the printed document) than the processes used for books.
