  105. Dear, Decisive, Darling, and Daring Deb Cannon suggests that:
  106.  
  107.      " ...                   While I have no beef against SAS
  108.      documentation per se, wouldn't it be great to have it all
  109.      ONLINE?  With indexes (a Book Manager feature) , so you can search
  110.      entire 'sets' of manuals for all existing verbage on a feature?
  111.      IBM, I'm told, has left a door open for third-party documentation.
  112.      Anyone heard how SAS is going to react to this?  Surely all the
  113.      manuals are already in machine-readable format..... "
  114.  
  115.      =================================================================
  116.  
  117.      Deb has just proven that she is NOT an old poop, because
  118.      it must certainly be true that all legitimate Old Poops
  119.      remember how we used to joke in the Seventies that SPSS
  120.      made its profit from the sale of manuals rather than the
  121.      sale of software.
  122.  
  123.      Is there anyone who doubts that a major portion of SAS Institute
  124.      revenue must come from manual sales?  (At least a major part of
  125.      my professional expenses is attributable to manual purchases!)
  126.      Since putting the manuals online would almost certainly mean
  127.      markedly decreased manual sales income for SAS Inst., would that
  128.      not be likely to result in further software price increases?
  129.  
  130.                      Great idea, Deb, I'd love to have
  131.                      access to continuously updated SAS manuals,
  132.                      but ...
  133.                                 Phil Gallagher, C.O.P.

  136. C.O.P.  --  Certified Old Poop (on a good day, anyway)
  137.  
  138. On the other hand, maybe Jim & John would prefer to see us slogging
  139. along with super manual access, even if it cost them profits?
  140. That would certainly be their prerogative, I guess.
