Sometimes we come up with ideas for the oddest reasons. The CD idea occurred because the printer won't have manuals ready until the end of next week, but we can have CDs tomorrow.
When we started thinking about costs (and trees) we said, "Wow!" So then it was, "What the hey. Let's see if the Family really wants that massive paper book or if they might prefer the CD." We're not sure you've ever had that option before.
Darren is correct: Because of your response, we continue to plan to put a gigantic printed manual, with the full 12-page Tuning Section and a complete list of the parts numbers for every X Factory and AE part into every Kit.
Some of you sound quite unhappy, and the opposite should be true. At X Factory, we value your input. When we have a question or a proposal, we put it out there for Family comments and try to do as you wish.
Thanks for your help with this. You defo want paper and ink, and that's what you will have.
In fact, we PhotoChopped all the color pix into excellent B & W pix, changing backgrounds, getting rid of some glare, etc so these B & W pix will be, by far, the best we've ever printed. The result is that the manual exists now only in B & W. We will have to go through the entire thing and one-by-one replace all the Chopped B & W with the original color pix to put it on the site. That will not be done tomorrow...
