I'd like to buy the whole 7.0 package with manuals, but as a student I have no
choice.  Does anyone else agree that when Apple puts 7.0 up for ftp (let's be
optimistic here) that they should also post the MacWrite II (or whatever) files
of the manual too?  That way cheapskates or bookhaters could still read the
documentation without blowing $100.  I'm fairly sure that after reading the
docs once I won't need to look at them again anyway, so even if I had 99.95,
after one read the manuals would collect dust.  Hell, I'd even settle for a
plain mega-huge text file.
