I've got manuals much older than that. If I could get them scanned for bitsavers then I'd have no interest in keeping the dead trees, but I don't know anybody local willing to do it and shipping them would be expensive.

What about softcopy? I swear I have OS/390 2.6 manuals (our first system). I also keep z/OS 1.13 on our server. No, we don't use 1.13 anymore, but I'm used to Bookreader and this is the last version of BOO manuals. Yes, we've got hardcopy manuals set. It was in 1998. I decided to discard it few years later. Hardcopy, not softcopy. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland W dniu 16.03.2020 o 19:59, Grant Taylor pisze: > On 3/16/20 12:40 PM, Paul Gilmartin wrote: >> Happened to us.
