Oh this is funny...but it did remind me of my former employer.
 Manuals would be taken and never returned - and always found
homes in cubicles...  So when I re-upped the support contract, I
killed the paper manuals and had Laser-ROM replace it.

When the CDs came in, I set up a Win95 machine with dual CD
drives..  LaserROM went in one of them and I shared the drive.
 Folks could then install the client software and search from
their desktops, thus rendering the need for paper manuals
obsolete...  or so I thought.

What did these geniuses do?  They printed entire chapters on a
Laserjet and made their own binders!  (and now they ask why I
left...hehehe)

Thanks for the laugh Glenn...

Joe
