Oh, I don't think the paper manual is bad - just that I am now unhappy with both paper and electronic! Historically I have preferred paper manuals. But I have come to really like the advantages of the PDFs. *sigh* I don't like PDFs, I don't like paper. > Copy??... try this, Buy a hard copy, remove the spine so it > becomes loose leaf, punch the pages for a 5 hole binder and > then remove the desired pages, make copies, replace the > originals in the binder, Hehe. And how will you make that copy without the help of electronics? Electronically, I have a _complete_ copy on CD to use in other computers, a copy on the laptop, a copy on the desktop, and I can email you a page with my notes on it. :) > Ok... so I give up.... call up the pages on your laptop after > you fight MBZ system that doesn't work.... print the pages and > use them..... we'll call it a "win". Well, I don't use the silly MB interface. I wonder if I could make an iPad/iPhone/Android app that would have the full manual and interface.... -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
