So whatt was the point of this? That you can't printout a copy of the
rule book? Want me to come over and show you how to hook up the
printer? With an electronic version, you could include as many
photographs or diagrams as needed to illustrate something. With printed
copy you have to cut back because of printing costs. Now I am an old
dinosaur but I have managed to come into the 21st centruy. Doing things
the old way is not always the best and this is one area that could be
upgradead and made far better that it is.
