I take it that you don't do any work from remote locations, or perhaps
you like to cart 50 lb. of manuals around with you.  And what about the
other users on the machine?  Or do you consider the 386 as a single-user
computer?  Now that disk space is more or less affordable, let's get the
manual back on-line.  Wouldn't AT&T like to sell everyone the next size
larger disk?
