Thank you Fish for starting this thread. Thanks to all you guys who have taken the time and effort to make this expired software work. And thanks to everyone who has helped someone (or ten) repair their equipment by sending this corporately hoarded information. Gotta love the internet....

Sent my third copy to 'hubmachine' yesterday. Gotta love this new toy, I use it almost every day. Just a personal note....I"m taking the extra step to guard against mail problems. I've sent all three copies via "Flat rate box". It's more expensive, but hopefully will eliminate scratched & damaged CD's. I've put the discs in cover protectors, wrapped them in foam, etc.

I love the USPS, just don't trust the handlers. Too many problems with my eBay shipping, I guess.

USPS Flat Rate Priority Mail is unnecessarily expensive for a single CD. I mail CDs/DVDs out for less than $2, plus the 70 or 80 cents for delivery confirmation.

- Place the CD in a paper or Tyvek CD sleeve, tape it between 2 squares cut from corrugated cardboard, place it in a large envelope cut down or folded to fit.

- Or tape it between 2 squares cut from cereal box cardboard and place it in a padded envelope cut down to fit.

- Or buy commercially made CD or photo mailers for less than the cost of USPS flat rate shipping.

The problem I have had with scratched CDs is when they are placed un-sleeved and loose in an envelope and allowed to slide around, especially if that envelope has a metal clasp.

Phil - The copy you sent to me was great. Packaging 100% intact. I will be using that method when I send them out. Speaking of which..... who's next on the list? I have 2 to mail out yet.

Big thanks to everyone supporting this chain letter. Comradery is a good feeling.

That's just my style, over build, over paint, over package, over tape, over tighten, wait........I try not to do that.......and I try not to over "Bud Light", that's a lot harder.....:hmm3grin2orange:

I also turned up a 2005 copy, I wonder if it has any of the older mechanic's manuals......

2005 on the way back to Fish.
Didn't see anything on this version that wasn't in the '07 version.
Was looking for some older Technical Information bulletins that are not on MediaCat '07 and newer.

Well don't send it... I was hoping that it may have had an older lookup or manual. If it doesn't........ Then it is dead to me.....Snifffff.......

I just don't have the puter savvy to do this stuff.........

A question by Poge on the other thread made me post this:

To find the tech/workshop manuals, click on "List View" when it first opens, then if there is a mechanic manual on the cd, it will appear when you click on that saw model...

I'll revisit the CD when I get home to see if maybe I simply missed that directory when I loaded the other "catalogs" onto my hard drive. This is a re-installation and I didn't want to always need to have the CD in the drive just to use the application. The service manuals gotta be there somewhere!
