RE: A little survey
Halo, Walter,

These remarks are from my own experience and point of view, already expressed by me before in another threads.
Please understand that I'm not critizising your work in a negative way. On the contrary.

- a user guide is only needed fo two reasons:
You are an expert and just need to check a reference guide occasionally;
Or you need to learn on how to take advantage of the machine features and need to learn about it.

- as it s now, the user guide is more a reference guide than a user guide, and so it is oriented to the hp rpn old expert guys. A minority of people these days, really.
However, strangely for a ref. guide, it contains very basic stuff on RPN for the novices as well.

- so, in order to cover a broader audience and justify a new user guide, it should include all the missing information that is explained elsewhere in the HP manuals.
For instance, explain on how to use the integration.
And with examples.
In this way the potential new buyers may take advantage of the machine without having to be experts on other HP machines or having to get and read HP manuals.

- a final note: it is mentioned in the current manual that the wp34s is based on the 42s. This is inaccurate and misleading and should be removed. Unless a new wpXX machine is really implementing the 42s interface, that is.


Just my 2 cents.
