perfectly correct and understandable. no one should provide links or offer said contraband on list. but can people ask for "manuals" in a generic sense or specifically for s-manuals provided there is no one list assistance? just trying to clarify, i'd never post anything like this on list but have helped others OFF LIST in the past. most people just ask for "manuals" anyway and really only usually need the user manuals freely available at apple.com through the normal menus etc. bless the dmca and litigious lawyers everywhere, and juries who wouldn't know a responsible party from an idiot who created their own problem in the first place. if you drop a hammer on your foot, expect it to hurt, even if there is no warning label, same goes for hitting your thumb, it's not the hammers fault, it's the fault of people who have a 6502 for a brain....
