Seems as if this topic pops up for ever and again. Presently Apple
provides this ftp site:
manuals.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Manuals. I don't know about the
legal intricacies, bu when I can access this site with my ftp browser,
log in as "anonymous" and download e.g, a powerbook user's guide, I
certainly do not feel like a software pirat. And if "service manuals" are
accessible via a similar path, the same holds true. Should Apple in fact
have this policy of hiding manuals concerning such age-old CPUs as the
Duo series, this appears somewhat ridiculous to me.
Just my 2p
