Just out of curiousity, am I the only one who uses the Dynatext manuals?

I don't need to be connected to the internet, and by copying the CD to my
PC, I've eliminated the CD as well (plus I can mix HPUX and MPE all in one
massive collection).  Of course, this costs in disk space but space is cheap
these days.

        Yes, HP, the HTML manuals ROCK!  (Why bother with the PDFs?)  May
the MPE/iX
        Intrinsics Reference Manual (32650-90821) be next?
