[Amps] No more HP/Agilent manuals on BAMA

[Will Matney]

What HP-Agilent did there is the most prickish behavior I've ever seen! The only reason they could be upset is that they still want to try and sell copies of old manuals! Now if that aint being tight, I dont know what it is. I'll sure tell um one thing, I'll think twice about buying a new HP or Compaq computer, and or any piece of test equipment they've made or will make. That's surely what's known as being low enough to crawl under a snakes belly.

I'll tell you what would really dig at um. Have someone to host the manuals where copyright laws dont extend. That goes on now with the server for WinMX I think for downloading music. I think they're home office is on an island somehwere around the Phillipienes, I cant remember where. I do know Sony and a few others tried to shut it down, and flat couldn't. If that government dont accept US copyright law, then the copyright holder is screwed. In HP's case, it would be deserving, IMHO.
