HERE HERE! Great Idea! It would save 7 lbs of shipping costs as well and I
really dont need more manual sets. Actually I dont EVER look at them when
I can grep the release notes or PDF view the entire manual on-line.

I asked before and I dont think they will give a discount, but Im sure
theyd take out the manuals if you asked. I ALWAYS ask my customers if they
want them, and some say "no, please NO". I hope this is okay with
