Hi Pete- I agree totally. In fact, that's a project I've been working on. I've got a stacks of original manuals and related materials for reference. Even set up a yahoo groups (DMCTech) as a clearinghouse for info. What I haven't had a lot of is time. This week I'm averaging 2 -3 hours sleep a night. Doesn't leave much time for my hobby. All the vendors but one have been generally supportive. If anyone would like to give me a hand with this, I do have work that needs to be done that others could begin. Another holdup- at Marc Levy's suggestion, I'm trying to put as much as possible in Adobe format, but I have yet to master it. I'm also not terribly satisfied with my results from scanninng in material. * * Sigh. * But I'm very persistent. Anybody out there with some time to help me get this rolling? Wayne A.
