  Hi.

 I just got a mixed bag of VMS and MicroVMS manuals. Its programming
 guides and users guides, unfortunately not complete. I also have RSX
 manuals for version 2, these are complete I think.

 I'm not throwing anything away, but I'm wondering if there is any value
 in preserving these and if I should make an effort and scan them?

 (I can get more specific about what manuals I have if someone cares)

 More specific would be good. Many have already been scanned, though they
 are not on line. 
Speaking of which - have the RSX manuals been scanned in color? For many 
volumes that is rather relevant, since DEC used colors to give 
additional information in the manuals.
(User input is usually in red, sections with a pink background are 
RSX-11M only, while sections with grey backgorund are RSX-11M-PLUS only, 
and sections with blue text are multiprocessor systems only).
