          On a personal note, I used to love on-line man
          pages, but now that I use the manual a lot, I prefer
          the printed manuals.  I can find things quicker and
          more easily, plus it's easier to flip between two or
          three manual pages in different sections.  Frank McGee,

     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?

One can get on-line manual pages.  It is a special order and is
listed as "machine readable documentation".  Contact your Account
Executive or 1-800-ATT-UNIX.
