I have to go with Ted on this one - I have II here and it's proven
invaluable on several occasions. The searches always have produced what I
was looking for (OK, and other things too, but no search engine is perfect)
and I find it better than the older, what's the name of that thing again...
Oh yes, LaserROM! :)
It installed without a reboot, I didn't have to mess with pesky environment
variables on the PC (remember having to manually add SET FULTEMP=<somedir>
in your AUTOEXEC.BAT before LaserROM would work?), and I could use it right
away.
Yep - the rest of the manuals should be converted over as soon as they can.
Cheers,
Joe
