    The website isn't coming up for me. Must be getting slammed by all this WinWorld referral traffic. :P

    That's odd, works for me!

    Was interesting browsing through the Apple Lisa files. The Sales Marketing Binder from 1984 was only 288 pages! There were many comparisons between Lisa and IBM XT, such as that it was better value to buy the Lisa Office System than an IBM with Lotus 1-2-3. We know how that ended.

    Working for me now. Appears it's hosted on somebody's Verizon FiOS connection, haha.

    Interesting stuff!

    I'm moving this over to Software.

    Anybody else have a keen interest in manuals?

    I've been trying to include manuals where possible and available. Much software from the 80's and earlier is unusable without a manual.
