[time-nuts] HP-105B Manual

[Jeremy Nichols]

[I keep forgetting to send these messages in plain text only. Sorry!]

Somewhere in one of these 105B discussions were some comments on the 
manual and its enormous set of change sheets. So I asked my wife, the 
former Laura Cline of HP Santa Clara marketing (post-sales support), 
"Why didn't you revise that manual?" She replied that she had offered to 
do so several times but management always refused. Apparently they kept 
thinking (hoping?) sales would drop to the point where they could 
discontinue the product, so why bother? I think when we retired in 1997 
they were still selling it!
