I'm really happy about the Archive scanning in all those old manuals. Making them searchable will be a big win, but my hope is that it will enable many of us to find our "Holy Grail" documents (those paper manuals before there were electronic copies). Mine is for a 6-M Azden PCS-5000 mobile, made back in the era of the Commodore VIC-20. (I'd be interested in seeing the VIC manuals again as well, now that I think about them. I hacked modem and memory boards to gpo with those.)
