Hi, Mike! Brian actually already has one of these ... he was just being a
nice guy in pointing out that another was available :-)

Well, hrm. I've scanned all the docs relating to the equipment Erik
wanted, then sent them off to him. The files are on my XP machine as
8bit, 300dpi files waiting to be put into pdf format ... I got stalled as
I tried to decide between just putting them up as images, or running them
through an OCR program. Then the process got stalled some more as I
worked more on ibm1130.org's new format ... which I believe is almost
ready to go, and I'll be posting about it as soon as it is. Then I'll pdf
the files. I think I'm just going to skip the OCR for now: it introduces
a lot of extra complications that will really slow down the process.

RSN,

Norm
