James:
I like the eDocumentation.  I can now carry all the AS400 manuals, EDI
standards, and other software documentation to every client I visit.  I no
longer have to depend that they will have the manuals handy.  I still print
parts of manuals when I really need to read them, but having access anytime,
anywhere is a God-send for me.
