Re: For Your Information - Automotive Repair Manuals on CD's

I don't do any "running" of this Forum....I'm too dumb.

But I do promote it whenever I can.

This is one really great Forum.

If you frequent other forums, you run into quite a few "Trolls" and a**holes who
make using the Forums a pain. "Trolls" look for fights and provoke posters into
arguments for the fun of it - usually like little kids.

I have not seen that happening here and it is very refreshing, indeed.

Everyone on this Forum is pleasant and helpful......now let's all sing Coom-by-yah....

BTW - I suggested to autorepairinfo.com that they join this Forum as a member.
In that way, they can answer any questions (private messaging?) and observe
what folks need and want as regards repairing cars.
I did not mean this in any way to be a personal promotion of the CD Manuals sales.

PS - to autorepairinfo.com - how many of the folks are familiar with Adobe Reader?
Probably few in number. Assuming we all know the jargon and nefarious systems is a mistake
that computer programmers make. I know, I used to write BASIC programs for our
Biochemistry Research Lab equipment when I worked for Bayer Corporation.

The simplest thing to me in my programs was incoherent jibberish to the average person
who had to use them - I assumed everyone would just know what to do....NOT !

For Example - how many people that you know understand how to set the Date on
their Video Tape Recorder/Player? Ask them....LOL

BTW - almost NO ONE ever reads a manual! They just start using a program and bitch
and moan when they screw it up....human nature. You have to lead them by the nose....
