Re: Looking through the archives...

I've seen some complaints about reading cinematronics schematics on Spies in
the past. I think that's mostly due to Al scanning the early schematics
which were included in the manuals. They were really poor copies to begin
with so it's not his fault. I have a couple of sets of the giant
"blueprint" schematics of the cpu board and some early revisions of the
monitors. Al, do you want to scan these and piece them together? If not
I'll post them on my site as I can but I'm VERY slow about that stuff (as
you might be able to tell from the site).

Thanks.

Omar

p.s. Paul, I emailed you some info which should hopefully get you going in
the right direction
