  Re: Scans are back!

  Re: Scans are back!
 
(...) Ouch! The zipfiles were THE manner in which I would view instruction manuals. If the zipfiles were too much hassle bandwidth-wise, how about making cd-roms of the library available for sale to fund the library? If I could get the extant (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-02, to lugnet.publish)
