Jim, The manuals are 6" x 8" and there are four of them. AmigaDOS (5/16" thick), WorkBench 2.1 (1/4), ARexx, (3/8), and Amiga Hard Disk (3/32"). Yes, they're easy to use, no you can't lay them open flat on a desk, but they're like a desk reference set in a stiff cardboard sleeve. I did find a few things that referred to WB 3.0 and not 2.1. Like Fountain has been renamed in WB3.0 to Intellifont, and it is called that in the WB2.1 manual, although the icon's name is Fountain. If you try and run Fountain after running Intelifont (if you have a copy of 3.0 laying around you can try this, we did at the dealer's) a requester will pop up telling you that Fountain is already running, so even the requester thinks its Fountain! Also references to Multiview a WB3.0 only program is also listed in it. Chris
