Hi Jake,

Very Impressive. That's a lot of work you have done.

I'll have to get mine ordered later this week.

One comment - you might want to put a link at the top of the page that will go directly to the ordering info. I almost gave up while scrolling to the bottom.

This is IMHO the best (if not the biggest) update to the PPC Archive to date, an amazing amount of new stuff has been added in nearly every section of the Archive. Even if someone purchased or updated a year ago, the amazing new breadth and diversity of documents makes the upgrade easily worthwhile.

Recommended for all HP fans, you won't regret it. Smile

I didn't know that scrolling to the bottom was that much of a burden :-)
<sarcasm off>

Sounds like a pretty good idea ...I'll fashion something up there.
Thanks,
Jake

It has more to do with my short attention span. Smile
