I can even read IBM redbooks via Google books as well as PDF (or EPUB). Would love all the IBM manuals to be EPUB. I wish CA (and others, but I need CA mostly) made its user manuals available for "whomsoever wills". It would make finding general information about a product so much easier. Of course, it would "cut out" the need to get hold of a CA representative and register yourself for contact by marketing. > > > -- > Jack J. Woehr # Science is more than a body of knowledge.
